External Affairs
A large part of our organization is collaborating with those in our UCLA community, the local Southern California Community, and in the larger national stage. RISHI collaborates with other clubs on campuses for various events ranging from social events to informational meetings. In collaboration with RISHI chapters throughout California we help plan a convention not only allowing for a sharing of ideas on each chapter's initiatives and club structure but also providing a platform for networking and socializing with other college students as well as experts in the field of global health who are guest speakers at these conventions.
RISHI CON
RISHI conferences are held annually and include multiple California chapters collaborating, networking, and sharing knowledge over past and future projects and steps for their chapters over the day-long event. During these conferences, our chapters work together to bring leaders of various fields to share their expertise that could help improve our organization's work.
Community Involvement
To increase our presence in the Los Angeles community, our organization looks to volunteer and assist in the efforts of local non-profit organizations that are focused in various areas, from nature cleanups to homeless food services. Our orgnization has also had the honor of being awarded with the Best Group Showcase at the 2024 UCLA Community Service Commission Showcase.
UCLA Club Collaborations
From socials to workshops, RISHI looks to collaborate with other UCLA clubs that are also working to improve global health and empowerment and have unique experiences they hope to share. In the past our collaborations have included UCLA Indian Student Union, Bhagat Puran Singh Health Intiative, UCLA GlobeMed, and many others.
