“MY CITY FOREST” is a community-driven urban afforestation initiative aimed at restoring ecological balance, enhancing urban resilience, and promoting environmental stewardship through localized tree plantation and forest development. Rooted in the vision of creating green, breathable, and climate-smart cities, this project brings together citizens, youth, local authorities, and businesses to convert unused urban spaces into thriving green lungs.
The project prioritizes native species, sustainable landscaping, and community engagement to improve air quality, reduce heat island effects, conserve biodiversity, and foster environmental awareness. It also serves as a platform for environmental education, climate action, and intergenerational responsibility towards a greener, healthier future.
“My Waste, My Responsibility” is a behavior-change and community engagement initiative focused on promoting responsible waste management at the individual and collective level. The project aims to empower citizens to take ownership of their waste—from segregation and reduction to recycling and proper disposal—thereby contributing to cleaner neighborhoods and a healthier environment.
The initiative promotes the principles of reduce, reuse, and recycle (3Rs) and encourages active participation from households, schools, businesses, and local governments. By fostering awareness about the environmental and health impacts of unmanaged waste, the project seeks to build a culture of accountability and sustainability within communities.
Through workshops, clean-up drives, educational campaigns, and partnerships with recyclers and local authorities, “My Waste, My Responsibility” addresses key issues such as plastic pollution, food waste, e-waste, and improper dumping—contributing to the broader goals of circular economy, climate action, and urban resilience

“Doing Good: Say No to Plastic” is a behavior change initiative aimed at reducing single-use plastic consumption by fostering conscious choices and sustainable habits in everyday life. The project empowers individuals, institutions, and businesses to shift from plastic dependency to eco-friendly alternatives, under the core belief that small actions lead to big change.
This initiative focuses on awareness, education, and action, encouraging people to rethink their consumption patterns, refuse unnecessary plastics, and adopt reusable, biodegradable, and local solutions. Through interactive campaigns, community engagement, school and workplace programs, and public pledges, “Doing Good” builds a culture of responsibility and pride in choosing what’s right for the planet.
