Schools
Schools are among the most influential institutions in shaping sustainable cities. Every day, they make decisions about food, water, waste, stationery, transportation, energy use and campus management that impact thousands of students and their families.
This section of the **Pune Sustainability Map** showcases schools across Pune that are implementing practical and inspiring sustainability initiatives. From reducing plastic waste and food waste to composting, textbook reuse, water conservation, biodiversity, student-led programmes and innovative school policies, these case studies demonstrate how sustainability can become part of everyday school life.
Each story highlights not only *what* the school has achieved, but also *how* it was implemented, enabling educators, school managements, policymakers and communities to learn from successful models and adapt them to their own institutions.
Every sustainable school has the potential to inspire many more.
