Main objectives and description of the project
- To improve the health of the children and mothers by helping them to reduce the pollution in the adjoining areas of the Ravi River
- To respect the rights of children of the area to have a clean environment
- To instill a positive attitude towards the conservation of the environment
- To increase the awareness of dangers related to alcohol use, and drug addiction
- To develop participatory educational approach for poverty eradication activities
- To sensitize the students to the changes which are threatening our planet, and prepare them to deal with these challenges
The key area of this project is Education for Sustainable Development. It focuses on educating people who live under deplorable conditions. They are guided in a most comprehensive manner to learn good practices in order to achieve a better and healthier sustainable environment.
While conducting community-based programmes, students become more aware of the problems that the community faces, and they become more involved in applying solutions under the guidance of teachers. More and more students are getting involved, gaining valuable knowledge, and transforming their attitudes in order to work as a team to solve the problems that they are facing together.
