Through a series of conversations and publications, Tara aims to reach out to such children across the country and the world to educate them on issues which directly impact their wellbeing.

Making a world of difference

Tara continues to be a mascot through her second publication on climate change, which is catered to low-income, first-generation school goers. Our climate change campaign culminated in the launch of our book, “Making a World of Difference” which looks at the environmental issues in a holistic and contextual manner and tackles issues arising from the same. This campaign was aligned with UN SDG 13.

So far 80,000 copies have been sent to partner schools and organizations in Hindi, English, Marathi and Bengali across India to raise awareness and to take action.
