Objective:

Green campus initiatives refer to sustainability policies and programs that educational institutions adopt in order to reduce their environmental effect, encourage sustainability, and establish a more eco-friendly and healthy campus community.

• Green campus programs aim to achieve several objectives such as sustainable transportation, biodiversity, energy efficiency, water conservation, trash reduction and recycling, and green areas.

• To improve the educational environment and make it more ecologically conscious.

Practical Principles –

• ADK’s campus is home to a different variety of endogenous plants and trees. The institution has a collection of multiple medicinal plants which makes it a garden of medicinal plants.
• Plant saplings in the gardening areas of the campus, planting saplings in the public places, cleaning the public places and creating awareness among the public.
