OBJECTIVE OF THE AWARDS:
The objective of these awards is to recognize and reward the efforts of schools, teachers, students, NGOs and Startups towards sustainability to make this world a better place. This initiative will also help us push for Agenda 2030. It will encourage schools to take definitive steps towards Education for Sustainable Development. It will also provide the institutions and individuals a platform to showcase their efforts towards a sustainable future. At the same time, this will spread awareness about the best sustainability practices across the world, enabling others to learn from them.
