"Igniting a Movement: Climate, and Green Skills"
As a Rover of the Metropolitan University Rover Scout Group, I participated in an inspiring initiative from May 15–18, 2025, called "Green Skills for Youth-Led Climate Action" under the Green Rising banner. This program focused on empowering youth to become leaders in local environmental advocacy and action.
The goal was to provide hands-on experience in practical, community-based activities. Participants engaged in essential efforts such as tree planting, conserving biodiversity, managing water and energy resources, and implementing effective waste management. Over three intensive days, we learned to plan impactful projects, connect them to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and use tools to track our progress. This initiative successfully combined collaboration, critical thinking, and environmental awareness, igniting a movement poised to make a real difference.
