EHIS Indore: Only school selected to teach Sustainable Development in India
More than 31 students from 10 countries hope to learn recycling & cleanliness
Indore is an ideal for the world to learn from... here is something implying that... The Emerald Heights International School (EHIS), Indore is the only school selected in the country to host international students and teach them about sustainable development through STEM (science, technology, engineering & maths). More than 31 students from 10 countries reached the school premises on Tuesday to begin their journey towards a sustainable future.
In an exclusive interaction with FP Schools Newspaper, international student quoted how littering is a major problem resulting in floods and pollution. Indore is the first city in the country to get rid of this bad habit and ensure no littering and proper recycling.
Furthermore, EHIS is the only school in the world to have successfully hosted the largest Round Square International Conference (RSIC) hosting over 1,000 delegates from 55 countries. Hence, the school was chosen in the country.
This is the first international student exchange since last three years. All exchanges were on break after covid-19 outbreak.

"In my opinion it's not just about we need to work to have a complete vision. When we buy a coke, people throw the can in trash and do not think about recycling. We need to primarily work on sustainable thinking. Not taking too long shower and avoid wasting water. We can synchronise everything. We should understand that we are taking something from nature and we must give back. I do want to learn about renewable energy. We can explore more applications of the same. In my city, we cannot have wind mills because it would kill the birds."

"I like using recycling products. We do not recycle much there because I live in rural area. I think clothes need a lot of cycling. A lot of them go to waste."

"Applying science and technology to sustainability would definitely prove to be effective like saving paper with digitalisation. I would make more recyclable products. Most products are non-recyclable products. 60 per cent is non recycle items. I donate my clothes. We usually use metal water bottles. I know that people use solar power. It's not very popular. We do not use it. There are many simple things like usage of solar power panels and myths about them, which hamper its usage and I want to break them.”

"I want to teach them about use of renewable energy. I need to make some developments in my country. I want to start with pollution. People throw trash on street. During the online project work of 12 weeks, I made an app to support funding projects in financial or service. It is for all kind of projects."

"I plan on learning as much as I can. I have a basic understanding of sustainable development. I came up with an idea to have community gardens. Everyone can bring plants to a public space. Anyone can take the produce. This would save them money. It would be a benefit to get healthy food. It also helps with pollution as we would recycle
We have a lot of flooding due to litter. So recycling plastic would help."
