Environmental sensitivity, as emphasized by the Sustainable Developmental Goals (SGDs’) particularly SDG 13 – climate action, SDG 14 – Life below water and SDG 15 – Life on land is crucial for safeguarding the different ecosystems eventually protecting the earth. School is a hub where students can be involved in adopting sustainable practices such as trash free- school, energy conservation audits, promoting renewable energy resources, conserving water through water harvesting, plantation drives, green school, waste segregation, protecting the natural habitat of the local birds and animals, identifying and addressing local environmental issues along with the local development authorities or Municipal Corporations or other environmental bodies. Advocacy from the school should reach the communities at large. Education, awareness, policy support are key to promoting environmental sensitivity and achieving SDGs.
We aim to honour institutions that actively promote environmental awareness and sustainable practices, inspiring future generations to become environmentally responsible citizens.
