International Youth Day Marked with Plantation Drive at University of Rawalpindi
University of Rawalpindi marked International Youth Day with a plantation drive, bringing students together to make a meaningful contribution towards a greener and healthier environment. The activity provided an opportunity for students to participate in a simple yet purposeful initiative focused on environmental awareness and responsibility.
The plantation drive highlighted the importance of engaging young people in activities that encourage them to care for their surroundings and take an active role in their communities. Through their participation, students demonstrated how small, collective actions can contribute to positive environmental change.
At University of Rawalpindi, youth empowerment extends beyond academic and professional development. It also involves encouraging students to become responsible members of society who understand the importance of sustainability, community participation, and environmental stewardship.
The activity reflected the spirit of International Youth Day by placing young people at the centre of a positive community initiative. A single tree planted today may seem like a small step, but collective efforts by young people can help create a greener environment and contribute to a more sustainable tomorrow.
The plantation drive reinforced University of Rawalpindi’s commitment to promoting youth engagement, environmental responsibility, community participation, and sustainable practices among its students.
