Breathing Cleaner, Living Better

Centre for Science and Environment’s Green Schools Programme (GSP) is organising a two-day workshop for school teachers. The workshop will focus on the critical issues of air pollution and the mobility crisis, along with their implications for health, especially for school-going children. It will also emphasize on adopting cleaner practices, understanding the societal impacts of air pollution, and exploring how schools can contribute to making a difference.

NOMINATION PROCEDURE
CSE and its partner organisations will collaboratively shortlist participants for the workshop

The participants will travel back to Delhi post-lunch on February 14, and head back to their respective destinations from there.

A broad agenda of the Workshop will soon be made available to the nominated participants and partner agencies of GSP.
