Ayush (GoSolar, UAE)

Youth are not only the beneficiaries of transformation in education, they are essential partners. In fact, they are the transformers. From Australia to Zimbabwe, youth-led networks and organizations are mobilizing and working together to transform education to help every child get a quality education, no matter who she, he or they are. For millions of students, lack of access to electricity negatively impacts study time. Particularly for girls, time dedicated to household chores compounds the problem, meaning there is little or no time left for homework. To tackle this issue, Ayush is using his creativity and passion for education to provide solar lamps to schoolgirls in India through his foundation Go Solar.
