India’s first exclusive network to make schools centers of sustainable development. It aims to create an ecosystem where schools engage with each other as well as experts, share ideas, learn about environmental challenges and ways to cope with them to ensure that overall learning is meaningfully backed with the idea of SUSTAINABILITY.
Joining Hands For A Sustainable Future
What Is SSN?
We believe it’s necessary to create a network which connects the sustainability centric efforts of schools across the country, and helps them grow further with mutual understanding, cooperation and exposure. The Sustainability School Network, first of its kind of network in India, seeks to connect various schools spread across India, by providing the students AND schools a platform to integrate education with sustainability and environment centric discourse, showcase their efforts in the area of sustainability, besides preparing students for a future where every aspect of life would require a balanced, sustainable approach – personal, professional and academic.
Mission
To create a network of sustainability inclusive schools where focus is on mentoring sustainably responsible individuals skilled to be competent participants of a changing world order.
Vision
To foster an environment where students are provided with the space and resources to encourage their development into environmentally conscious global citizens, and creating a learning environment conducive to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals 2030 – the plan of action for people, planet and profit.
