Undergraduate / I am engaged in an environmental organization - your extracurricular actions [4]
Please briefly elaborate on one of your extracurricular activities or work experiences. (150 word limit)
I am engaged in an environmental organization, Center for Climate Change Research Center Nepal, as a Junior Program Coordinator. At first, I was just a volunteer, but as the organization itself and its member students increased rapidly I got elected to Junior Program Coordinator. We started our work in local community of Sitapaila. First we started visiting local schools and organized quizzes, dramas and poetry competitions with environmental themes. We planted 100 trees each months and assign a particular tree to a school student to take care of it. It was a success and next we started '3R-Reduce, Reuse, Recycle' project along with 'No Plastics'. It also had a big impact. Now at least 7 schools in Sitapaila are plastics free and follow green principle. Though skeptic at first, people of Sitapaila now believe that we are doing something with a value for present and for future.
