Awareness Campaign about Waste Prevention
The campaign was launched by student of the ‘Media and Communication Studies Department’ to raise awareness about
waste prevention by introducing eco-friendly edible products like coffee cups. The cups are made entirely of edible,
natural components; they don't include any colors or preservatives – do not include any components originating from
animals. The cups do not transmit heat, alter the flavor of a beverage, or absorb moisture for 30 minutes.
Awareness Campaign about SDGs at Allama Iqbal Open
University
Students of the ‘Governance and Public Policy (G&PP) Department’
started an awareness campaign about SDGs at the “Allama Iqbal Open
University” (AIOU). In 2015, the 193 countries that make up the United
Nations (UN) agreed to adopt the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable
Development. The historic agenda lays out 17 Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs) and targets for dignity, peace, and prosperity for the
planet and humankind, to be completed by the year 2030. The agenda
targets multiple areas for action, such as poverty and sanitation, and
plans to build up local economies while addressing people's social needs
