ECO-COPS is a youth-led movement dedicated to nurturing an inner sense of environmental responsibility among students and communities. Rooted in the belief that true sustainability begins from within, the project works to cultivate a generation that chooses to protect the environment out of understanding and conviction rather than obligation.
Through sensitisation, ECO-COPS equips students and teachers with a practical understanding of environmental stewardship, responsible consumption, proper waste management, and sustainable living. The goal is to spark genuine awareness and nurture eco-conscious habits that feel natural rather than imposed.
Through advocacy, the project empowers young people to champion environmental responsibility within their schools, homes, and communities. ECO-COPS encourages students to lead conversations, challenge harmful norms, and inspire others to adopt environmentally friendly practices.
Through policy, the project collaborates with school administrations and local stakeholders to introduce and reinforce sustainability policies, including anti-plastic measures, waste management systems, and greener institutional cultures. These policies secure long-term behavioural change and provide structure for continued progress.
