Speaking about the competition to curb air pollution, Harjiv Singh, Founder & CEO of BrainGain Magazine, said, “According to UNICEF, some 220 million children in South Asia are exposed to pollution levels more than six times the standards set by the WHO. The impact has been particularly disturbing in Delhi this year calling for an urgent action in this direction. Through this competition with Care For Air, we want to create awareness among the young students and crowdsource innovative ideas to help curb this problem facing India and other South Asian countries. BrainGain Magazine aims to create an inclusive platform for youth to play a constructive role in influencing policy on such citizen-centric matters.”

Students can participate in the competition for free by submitting an online proposal on BrainGain Magazine.

The plan must have a clear focus, a holistic view and a message for a well-defined target audience.
