Abu Dhabi Teenager Launches Anti-Smoking Campaign
Gaurav Basavarth, 16, is the founder of the Are You The One Among Five? campaign
Tired of seeing close to 100 cigarettes butts a day littering the toilets at his school, Gaurav Basavarth decided to take action.
The 16-year-old, who attends Abu Dhabi Indian School, launched the Are You The One Among Five? campaign, which kicked off in Khalidya Mall with about 20 volunteers talking about the dangers of smoking among teenagers.
“I saw around one in five of the teenagers I knew smoked and looking it up online I found the same number,” Gaurav said. Details
