The sound of ideas filled classrooms across the UAE as students built models, argued for solutions, and imagined futures they wanted to see. This was the heart of HAL’s 100 Days of Sustainability, a program that reached 24 schools and over 5,000 students.

Grounded in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the UAE National Agenda, the program turned global and national priorities into something young people could live and practice.

Each school worked with its own theme, from designing sustainable cities like Masdar to restoring ecosystems and tackling daily choices around health and water. The energy was unmistakable, with debates, sketches, and projects showing how much students cared when given the chance to lead.
