Planet POV (Point of View) – Your Insights, Your Actions is a school engagement programme for youths aged 13 to 17 that introduces local sustainability efforts through hands-on workshops, dialogues, and activities, encouraging participants to take meaningful action beyond the programme.
Working with schools and students over the years, we've seen that sustainability engagement varies — often due to unequal access to resources.
To create lasting momentum, sustainability education must reach students early, as they form their own perspectives. This programme complements the curriculum with a hands-on, locally focused approach.
Since the programme began, it has engaged over 1,050 students from 16 schools, contributing to a growing total of 1,900 participant hours to date.
Planet POV introduces students to real-world sustainability issues — from waste streams and nature-based topics to skills in sustainability communication and green career awareness. Sessions are delivered by Green Nudge and fully supported by UNIQLO Singapore.

Fabric Upcycling Workshop with Singapore Chinese Girls School
Students from the Environment Club (Secondary 1 to 4) explored fashion waste in Singapore and upcycled old t-shirts into tote bags — a fun, hands-on way to promote sustainability and creative reuse.
Plastic Upcycling Workshop with Woodgrove Secondary School
Students learnt about Singapore’s plastic waste challenges before hands-on activities. They created ecobricks from soft plastics and made recycled keychains by melting hard plastics, combining practical skills with deeper knowledge of plastic reuse.
Orchard Trail with Woodlands Secondary School
School leaders and ambassadors joined a 2-hour sustainability trail around Orchard Road, exploring fashion’s evolution and sustainable practices like thrifting and repairing. The trail included a behind-the-scenes visit to UNIQLO, where they made fabric keepsakes for the SG60 Community Gift project, part of an overseas exhibition.
EcoFest Kayak Waterway Cleanup with Public
Members of the public aged 13 and above joined a two-session kayak event to collect litter and debris, helping keep waterways clean. An educational session explained litter sources, its effects on marine life, and common local creatures.
Marine ConservAction with Pei Hwa Secondary School
Selected Secondary 2 students took part in a coastal cleanup as part of their sustainability project. Alongside collecting litter, they learnt about marine debris sources and impact, and explored local marine life through visuals and intertidal artefacts.
4-Pillar Sustainability Talk with Kranji Secondary School
We conducted a 4-Pillar Sustainability sharing with half of the Secondary 1 cohort, focusing on key themes: Nature (Singapore’s rainforests and mangroves); Water (marine pollution and wildlife); Climate (causes and impacts of climate change); and Textile Waste (fabric waste and sustainable solutions).
We’re proud to work with a diverse range of schools to support impactful learning. Schools we’ve partnered with include:
As the programme developer and experience partner, we enhance classroom learning through practical activities that engage youth with real-world environmental issues and foster meaningful action.
