Our goal as an organization to join Catalyst 2030 is to collaborate with like-minded organizations/innovators to address the current plastic pollution and climate crises and achieve our targeted SDGs (1, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, & 14). At Route 360 Solutions Initiative, we strongly believe that no single organization/individual can achieve any of the SDGs on their own except through collaboration, which is one of our core values.

As submitted earlier, our work as an organisation is primarily focused on achieving SDG 2, but also has multiplying effect on SDGs 1, 3 and 4. In that case I hope to lead my organisation's program to employ innovative means to achieve our goals that will contribute to contribute to 4 SDGs.

The world is a globalized village now but opportunities especially those that affect the lives of youths and women are not enough.The rights of individuals are not respected especially in developing countries where access to Education and information is limited. All of these and other issues like climate change and sustainable energy have eaten into the very heart of individuals who I am working very hard to make their voice heard and understood.Joing catalyst 2030 is very important to my dream of making the world a better place for all to enjoy same right,freedom and that willing to change the world.

I believe that our proximity to the diverse challenges we encounter in a developing nation and in a rural setting enables us to have a new perspective on how to bridge local solutions to international advocacy. I hope to gain insight into how to access global knowledge and perspectives to create lasting solutions.
