The Hertfordshire residents are scientists, authors, and philanthropists who founded the Centre for Big Synergy (CBS) a civil service initiative associated with the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Shocked to learn from her parents that not only children but many adults were unaware of the SDG goals, Moksha showed interest in spreading awareness and inspire action at the tender age.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Her determination has led to the integration of SDGs-related knowledge into the curriculum of British schools when she wrote to the Prime Minister of UK in 2021. She simultaneously wrote to leaders of 193 countries to make necessary policy changes to include the global SDG goals in their nations\u2019 school curriculum. She was thrilled to receive responses from government officials, leaders, and representatives of 22 countries, including the UK, Canada, Germany, and Norway. \u201cI felt happy to have support of so many leaders, some of whom took action to make policy changes,\u201d she said in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=K81c2PLiW1E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interview<\/a>.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">With a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@moksharoy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube channel<\/a> as one on her platforms, Moksha continues to raise awareness about environmental issues, including microplastic pollution, about which she aims to educate a billion children and their families through the &#8216;Microplastic Free 2023&#8217; campaign. Accompanied by her parents, she has also worked in underprivileged schools in India to further the cause and has raised funds for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldwildlife.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">World Wildlife Fund<\/a> (WWF) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unicef.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">UNICEF UK<\/a>. Apart from being the recipient of the Points of Honour award this year, the youngster received British Citizen Youth Award (BCyA) in 2022.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Youngest sustainability advocate<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The milestones that Moksha has achieved gives her the impetus to keep moving ahead. The biggest of all milestones was when the UK Secretary for State for Education not only acknowledged her letter but also considered it as a part of the Sustainability and Climate Change Strategy for Education and Children\u2019s Services. \u201cWe shared the first version of the strategy in 2021. We will think about your helpful idea as we continue to work on the final version,\u201d he had replied.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Her efforts have led to mindful practices in classrooms including her own. \u201cMy favourite part of spreading awareness is when I get to see people making changes even if they are really small ones. I like seeing many of friends giving up harmful products like glitter altogether. Instead, they are using natural materials for arts and crafts,\u201d she remarked.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Moksha explains how nature recycles\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dYLfgxe6Khw?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Compassionate leader<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Moksha\u2019s compassion has extended to different domains. Her dedication to underprivileged children was evident when for her birthday gift, she requested friends and family to donate to UNICEF UK, raising \u00a3350 for the organisation.
