Together, let’s reclaim our right to pure air

#CLFT for Schools

Air pollution is now the second leading risk factor for death worldwide

Air pollution has become the world’s second biggest health risk, and its effects are felt everywhere—from big cities to small towns and villages across India. The air we all rely on is now carrying invisible dangers, putting the health and future of millions of children at risk.

That’s why schools are more important than ever—not just as places to learn, but as hubs for positive change in their communities. With this in mind, QS I-GAUGE has launched #CLFT for Schools, a special part of the Campus Leaders For Tomorrow campaign. This initiative is all about empowering students to take action against air pollution and to build a culture of sustainability right from the start. By working together, we can help young minds become champions for cleaner air and a healthier, greener future.

Let’s come together to ensure every breath our children take is clean and healthy —

Because their future depends on it.

For students across India, air pollution isn’t just a distant problem—it’s something they face every day. Polluted air leads to more cases of asthma, allergies, and other health issues, making it harder for kids to focus, learn, and even attend school regularly. The World Health Organization reminds us that children are especially at risk, as their growing bodies are more sensitive to the harmful effects of air pollution.

That’s why it’s so important for schools to step up—not just to protect students’ health right now, but to teach them the value of caring for the environment for life. By working together, we can create safer, healthier spaces for our children to learn, grow, and thrive.

Solving Air Pollution Together!

0% Air Purifiers in Classrooms
Installing air purifiers reduces indoor pollution concentrations by up to 57%, directly improving air quality in learning spaces & lowering health risks for students & staff.
0% School Streets Initiatives
Restricting vehicle traffic during drop-off/pick-up hours cuts outdoor particle concentrations by up to 36%, reducing exposure during peak pollution times.
0% Green Barrier Installation
Planting hedges or green screens along school boundaries reduces outdoor particulate matter from roads by up to 44%, serving as a natural air filter.
0% Pollution-Aware Scheduling
Rescheduling outdoor activities to afternoons (when pollution often dips) can lower exposure by 15-20% based on diurnal pollution patterns, though institution-specific data is recommended.
0% Clean Commute Advocacy
Promoting walking, cycling, or carpool clubs reduces vehicle emissions near schools. Schools adopting these measures report 10-30% lower NO₂ levels, particularly impactful in urban areas.
0% Ventilation Upgrades
Optimizing ventilation systems with high-efficiency filters reduces indoor pollutants by 40-50%, especially when combined with real-time air quality monitoring.

Join the movement—

Let’s stand up for clean air and give every student the chance to breathe easy and reach their full potential.

#CLFT for Schools is all about turning students into active leaders and real-world problem-solvers. Instead of just learning about air pollution in the classroom, students get to step up as Campus Leaders and Brand Ambassadors. This gives them a real voice and a platform to make a difference in their school community.

These young leaders work together to spot sources of air pollution around their schools, kick off awareness campaigns, and put practical solutions into action—like encouraging green ways to get to school, planting more trees, and promoting clean energy. By rolling up their sleeves and working on hands-on projects, students not only discover the science behind air pollution, but also build valuable skills in teamwork, communication, and critical thinking.

Together, we can create a generation of empowered, environmentally-conscious students who are ready to lead the way to a cleaner, healthier future.

To make the fight for cleaner air an ongoing journey—one led by the passion, creativity, and determination of India’s students.

With CLFT for Schools, young people aren’t just learning about environmental issues—they’re stepping up to protect their surroundings, speak out for cleaner air, and inspire others to do the same. This isn’t just a campaign; it’s a movement that empowers students to leave a legacy of health and sustainability for future generations.

In a time when clean air is more precious than ever, CLFT for Schools gives students the tools and hope they need to lead the way toward a brighter, greener tomorrow.
