Ravi’s work fits squarely within that mould: under his stewardship, Reckitt has deepened collaborations with non-profits, government bodies and grassroots organisations to scale interventions that improve school infrastructure, hygiene practices and learning environments for underserved children.
His efforts have helped deliver safer classrooms, access to clean sanitation and health education – components that uplift attendance, dignity and long-term wellbeing. Beyond institutional initiatives, Ravi has personally championed numerous community projects that extend Reckitt’s social footprint.
He has supported campaigns for menstrual hygiene management, community health drives, and skill-building programmes for adolescents, while encouraging employee volunteering and local leadership.
One long-running initiative Ravi has been closely associated with is Reckitt’s Dettol Banega Swasth India campaign, run in partnership with NDTV for more than a decade. That programme has focused on hygiene awareness, behaviour change and public health outreach across urban and rural India—work aligned with the award’s emphasis on scalable, preventive health measures.
The presentation by former Chief Justice of India Dr Justice D.Y. Chandrachud at a ceremony marking a milestone for Yuva Unstoppable underscores the growing role corporate-public collaborations play in social development.
Ravi Bhatnagar’s recognition reflects both strategic leadership and an enduring personal investment in projects that improve everyday lives, particularly for children and vulnerable communities.
