One Planet. 14 Locations. 1000+ Voices for Nature 
This World Environment Day, something simple yet powerful happened across 14 learning centres our classrooms turned green. Not just in colour, but in thought.
Over 1000 students joined hands in a collective moment of awareness and action. From early morning, they gathered in their classrooms to reflect on what the environment means to them not through lectures or textbooks, but through real conversation. They spoke about pollution, climate change, and the small changes they see around them rising temperatures, and fewer trees.
At 10 centres, students planted saplings. Not ceremonially, but meaningfully.
In the art corners, students used natural colours and earth-based materials to create posters and drawings. Their work didn’t just show rivers and trees it reflected questions, hope, and protest. What will the world look like when we grow up? Why are people cutting forests? Who is responsible?
We believe that conversations like these matter especially now.
With climate change becoming impossible to ignore, it’s the rural and tribal communities who are hit the hardest. Drought, extreme weather, and shrinking green cover directly affect their water, food, and income. And yet, they are often the last to be included in environmental education or climate conversations.
This is why it’s so important to make sustainability a lived experience in the spaces where it’s needed most. When a child plants a tree, learns to reuse, or speaks up about plastic waste, they’re not just learning they’re leading.
