When I first heard of TUNZA, I wasn't actually sure, what it does, what are the views and goals. I saw the call for application and I applied because I had too many free time to spare. Then when the final mail came as a confirmation of my ambassadorship, I was pretty dizzy. In the mail, I was asked if I were sure about TUNZA or not. Then I started studying the website, talked to others and came to know how huge it is! That's how it began... I wrote the first article on flood in Bangladesh, titled "Water Water Everywhere, not a drop to drink". It was my first blog in life and I was overwhelmed by the response. The Eco-warriors, the ambassadors were so kind to leave comments and appreciations. I was so encouraged and I started believing in myself. I felt I was changing! A couple of months later, I took another step. I asked for resources and took step to hold a workshop on environment. I was a little worried if I could do this all alone, if I can meet the demand of TUNZA. Somehow the workshop went pretty well too. I was succeeded to make 51 student aware of the environment and 5of them took the leadership to work for the environment in future. My belief in me grew higher and I started to work more, it felt like an addiction! After five months of ambassadorship, I can feel that I am changed now. Positive attitude, volunteerism, selflessness, social involvement, critical thinking- TUNZA instilled in me and lastly I want to thank TUNZA for transforming me from an individual to a social being. |
