Eco-Visionaries club: To protect environment and bringing awareness among the students
Eco Visionaries is a student-led initiative aimed at raising awareness about climate change and promoting sustainable practices through collective action. The project addresses the lack of long-term engagement in environmental issues by establishing a student club that organizes activities focused on reducing plastic waste and encouraging behavioral change in local communities. Key objectives include educating school students on environmental topics and hosting impactful events such as beach cleanups, recycling drives, and carbon footprint calculation workshops. Despite facing challenges like weather-related cancellations and securing permissions, Eco Visionaries successfully mobilized students and the local community. Ultimately, it has created a sustained platform for climate action that inspires future generations and fosters lasting environmental awareness and community participation.
Eco Visionaries has made a significant impact by promoting environmental awareness, practical action, and community engagement through various activities. These include Carbon Footprint Calculation Workshops, which engaged over 50 participants in reducing their carbon footprints, and sustainability workshops that fostered eco-conscious habits. Beach cleanups with 20-30 participants each directly reduced plastic waste and highlighted community action’s importance. The Eco InnovateX Ideathon, in collaboration with InnovateX and A-Hub, inspired students to develop innovative solutions to environmental challenges. Collectively, these initiatives have reached over 100 students and community members, fostering a lasting culture of sustainability and environmental responsibility through the Eco Visionaries club.
