Team Information
Among the staff at The Bagdad-ul-Jadeed campus of Islamia University of Bahawalpur, we conducted
our initiative. The main topic of our endeavir was “How Climate is Changing Due to Human
Activities?” We shared our ideas, and both groups (YLA and participants) engaged in a brief
discussion of the topic from various perspectives.
The conversation particularly involved employees working in plant growth and those in the state-
care department of the university. Their insights were invaluable in understanding the practical
implications of climate change and how it affects their work.
Beneficiaries Details
As no one can deny, the climate is changing due to various reasons created by human activities. One
of the primary contributors is the burning of fossil fuels including petrol, diesel, and compressed
natural gas (CNG). These fuels release significant amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse
gases into the atmospher leading to an increase in global temperature.
Furthermore, deforestation and industrial processes further exacerbate the situation by reducing the
Earth's capacity to absorb carbon and releasing more pollutants. Together, these actions contribute to
climate change, affecting weather patterns, sea levels, and ecosystems worldwide.
Background and Rationale
How your YLA will address the needs identified and evaluated?
Assessment and Planning: We will start by going over the needs that were found throughout our
evaluations and talks in great detail.
Collaborative Approach: We prioritize our actions based on impact working as a team by assisting
each other.
Execution of Instructional Plans: Execution of instructional plans in every institute by the support of
their staff.
Monitoring and Evaluation: Progress and outcomes will be monitored weekly basis through
assessment forms.
Feedback and Comments: Feedback is a great tool to figure out the growth and advantages of whole
activity.
Background and Rationale
How this YLA will offer a new and creative way to tackle the needs?
The team will use a unique approach by combining technology and community participation.
We can provide online resources and interactive physical workshops that make learning
available to a wider audience by utilizing digital platforms and institutions. Members will be
able to collaborate and exchange ideas and solutions in real time as a result, which will
increase engagement. Incorporating gamification components into our programs will also
increase participant motivation and enjoyment of the learning process, which will ultimately
result in a stronger retention of knowledge and skills.
YLA Objectives
Through our initiative, we achieved several significant outcomes that contributed to both
individual and community development. Firstly, we successfully educated over 23 employees at
The Islamia University of Bahawalpur about the impacts of climate change and the importance
of sustainable practices. This resulted in increased awareness and knowledge, with many
participants reporting changes in their daily habits, such as reduced energy consumption and
more eco-friendly practices.
Activities and Methodology
Detail the expected activities to be implemented as part of the YLA project, along with the
proposed methodology and approach.
Activities Description and Methodology Timeline
Future youth-led projects ought to place a high priority on addressing community needs in light of
the lessons learned and conclusions drawn from the YLA project. Before a project is designed,
comprehensive assessments are carried out to guarantee that the efforts are beneficial and relevant,
addressing particular problems that the community faces. Furthermore, promoting cooperation
between youth organizations, academic institutions, and neighbourhood non-governmental
organizations can improve the exchange of resources and knowledge, resulting in a stronger support
system. Technology may help outreach and engagement programs reach a wider audience and
increase participation, making them more approachable to a range of young people.
