In today's episode, we're thrilled to feature Aarna Wadhawan in the first of many episodes on our Youth Board. At just 14, this Indian prodigy is fiercely advocating for environmental causes, including afforestation and combating various forms of pollution, while also championing girl child education. With a track record of planting over 7500 trees globally and distinctions as a 2x TEDx speaker and a voice at Josh Talks, Aarna's credentials are indeed impressive. Her collaborations with esteemed organizations like WWF India, TERI, and Global Resilience Partnership, along with her role as the youth ambassador for Project 100, are a testament to her dedication. The highlight of her journey so far? Being an Earth Prize Scholar 2022 for her ingenious creation, 'Ecosteria', a solar-powered UV lamp designed to bring sterilization solutions to electricity-scarce rural regions. Her efforts have even earned praise from India's Environment Minister. As Aarna looks forward, her mission is clear: to steer her peers towards sustainable practices and shape global mindsets. Join us to delve into Aarna's inspiring journey, her innovative solutions, and her vision for a greener tomorrow.🌱🎙️
