Green Initiative: Environment is Clean; Earth is Green

I. Rationale

The current state of the environment is a pressing issue that affects us all, and it is imperative
that we take action to protect and preserve it for future generations. Service learning provides
an opportunity for students to actively engage in their communities while developing
important skills, such as problem-solving, communication, and leadership. By participating in
a service learning program focused on caring for the environment, students can develop a
deeper understanding of the impact of their actions on the environment and become agents of
change.

II. Objectives of the Program

 To increase students' knowledge and understanding of environmental issues and their

impact on the community.
 To develop students' skills in research, problem-solving, and communication through
service learning projects related to the environment.
 To promote community engagement and foster a sense of responsibility for
environmental stewardship.

role in planning and implementing environmental service projects.
