Are our children
ready to face

The event was successful, amazingly they are aware of the state of the environment as per now. As an environmental engineer and expert, my main goal into this is to cultivate a green culture in different societies most preferably children. After my presentation and other fellow panelists, The questions asked by attended children together with our discussion assured that where we are heading in terms of environment status is bright, if we can keep on encouraging, inspiring and educating our children about preserving and protecting our environment. While my presentation was mainly based on green culture, which brings up the practical way of how to think green, go green and live green. The practical way to successfully implement SDGs in their communities and their roles as children into preserving and protecting and improving the environment. We also discussed about the challenges in place and how to overcome them and make the environment better than how we found it. I sincerely extend my appreciation to Miss Niddhi Sharma and the parenting group for your contribution in educating children and youth about environment conservation and protection. We appreciate you for organizing such a great event, and we hope to see it extended to many other schools in China, Asia and the whole world .

It was so nice to have our Grade 11 CAS students attend the 4th annual YES event. Nidhi Sharma is an inspirational person who really cares about education, leadership, and her community, her event was well organized and meaningful, she even took time from her busy schedule to come to our school and discuss the event face to face with our students. As the CAS coordinator, I love to see our students get creative with their projects and make them meaningful and authentic. This was an excellent chance for our students to meet students from other schools who share similar passions and values. Thank you so much for your dedication!

Working with Nidhi is an extremely pleasant experience. The community she’s built through the Parenting Group fosters in-depth discussion amongst families in Shanghai. Her events and articles touch on the pressing issues facing students today from the intersection of education and technology to global warming, Nidhi always ensures the families in her network are in the know.

The YES conference was one of the most memorable events in 2019. By sharing each other’s thoughts and presenting them to others, we get better understanding about the environmental knowledge. It is also very appreciated that we have the chance to share our understanding of synthesizing SDGs as well. Through this opportunity, we’ve enhanced our collaboration skills, communication skills and presentation skills.

I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with Nidhi on a few occasions and I’ve always been fascinated by her hands on attitude and the ability to connect with people. The last 8th if March event she organized and I’ve helped moderating was a tremendous success thank to her organizational skills, her capability to bring in sponsors and engage with the audience. I’ll definitely work with her again, she’s inspiring professional.

Nidhi organized an engaging and relevant event that encouraged students to explore the SDGs in ways that were meaningful to their disciplinary learning and service experiences. Students enjoyed the challenge of public speaking and interacting with learners from different environments. We are excited for the YES 2020!
