My experiences with leadership and teamwork have been significantly shaped by my participation in the EUMIND (Europe Meets India) program.

In 2020, during my 8th grade, I was part of a group tasked with promoting the usage of eco-friendly materials and encouraging a sustainable approach by replacing plastic objects with eco-friendly alternatives. As the Editor for our group’s website, I collaborated with students from a school in the Netherlands. Together, we created several artifacts using eco-friendly materials and showcased them in an exhibition at our school.

In 2021, during my 9th grade, our focus shifted to promoting the usage of renewable sources of energy and encouraging energy-saving practices both at school and at home. This time, I served as the Leader of our group. Leading my peers and collaborating with Dutch students was an enriching experience that enhanced my leadership abilities and deepened my appreciation for renewable energy initiatives.
