About

The Initiative

We are a new initiative founded in July, 2020 that seeks to empower young people to widen their horizons by contributing constructively to society. Most people think of sustainability in an extremely one-dimensional way, relating it only to our environment and surroundings. But, it is so much more than just that. Sustainability, more than anything else, is a lifestyle choice which includes a conscientious, mindful way of life that positively impacts society, people and the environment, collectively.

With the on-going situation, we didn’t know how to give back to society and felt more helpless than ever. That is where this idea came to mind. A group of 7 of us, together with our founder, worked hard, pulling all-nighters putting this initiative together.
