Building India's Climate Leadership Infrastructure
CAL-SP is India's first Climate Leadership Discovery Platform—preparing students for leadership roles in climate action, sustainability, governance, and the emerging green economy.
Preparing Students for Responsibility
India is entering a decisive phase of its national journey—where the quality of education, leadership, and human capital will determine whether long-term goals such as Net Zero Bharat 2070 and Viksit Bharat @2047 translate from vision into reality.
As climate change increasingly intersects with livelihoods, urban living, public health, agriculture, and governance, the need of the hour is not only climate awareness, but climate-competent leadership prepared early and responsibly.
"CAL-SP is built as leadership infrastructure, not a short-term intervention—aligned with India's constitutional values, educational reforms, and global commitments."
The Climate Action Leader – Scout Program (CAL-SP) is designed to systematically identify, nurture, and prepare students from Classes 8–12 for leadership roles in climate action, sustainability, governance, and the emerging green economy.
Aligned with NEP 2020
By moving learning beyond textbooks into local climate observation, solution design, and civic engagement, CAL-SP enables schools to operationalise NEP 2020 in a meaningful and measurable way.
- Experiential and inquiry-based learning
- Development of critical thinking and problem-solving
- Civic responsibility and constitutional values
- Multidisciplinary and real-world exposure
