The mission aims to raise awareness of our collective duty to protect the Earth for future generations.

The Environment & Agriculture Skill Set Lab acts as a catalyst for students' career paths, prioritising sustainable practices and nurturing a deeper connection to nature. As the organisation endeavours to become a societal movement, projects like the Urban Forest engage local communities in creating green spaces in urban environments. Key events such as VAR and Environmental Pledge seek to enhance public understanding of environmental stewardship. Together, a greener, more sustainable future can be nurtured.
