Project EarthWard is an educational, environmental advocacy initiative. The project aims to cultivate awareness among students aged 5 to 15 about the perils of climate change, with a particular emphasis given to grassroots endeavors targeted at environmental conservation. The project endeavors to do this by equipping these students with engaging educational material spanning a variety of topics that center both climate change awareness, and action.

In partnership with a registered Delhi NGO, the Prajna foundation, this project will carry out its mission by conducting workshop sessions with students of the target demographic. These sessions will cover topics and concepts central to environmental conservation efforts such as global warming and climate change, pollution, the greenhouse effect, and Renewable Environmental Activists.

The educational material these workshops will use as reference material will include an original six-module educational curriculum covering these topics available in both English and Hindi. The project's goals closely align with the Prajna Foundation’s mission of education, empowerment, and well-rounded growth and development for underserved children from the slums of Delhi. The foundation aims to do this by helping these children escape cycles of poverty through holistic intervention and educational support.

We are now engaging in fundraising efforts to provide tangible assistance to the children in attendance at the workshops. With a goal of INR 50,000, Project EarthWard aims to assist the Prajna Foundation with these ongoing efforts of education and empowerment in the hopes of transforming these children’s lives and helping them build a more stable foundation and a greener global future.
