Co-founded by Teach For India alumnus Nikhil Sharma, ElemenTree Education works towards providing accurate and locally contextualized climate education to children in India. Different programs are offered such as "The Climate Unity" which aspires to bring young and dynamic climate enthusiasts from the community by focusing on action, education, engagement and awareness. Another initiative is the "Young Leaders For Climate Action," a fellowship program for 12-18 year-olds in India. Further, they offer capacity-building workshops to empower educators to deliver climate education in their schools. Note: there is a fee for pursuing this program, but scholarships are offered.
