Youngsters are progressively voicing out against social and ecological issues that are wreaking havoc on human livelihoods worldwide. Acknowledging the severity of the global situation, "Generation 17" is a project initiated in collaboration with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) that plans to bridle innovation to lift the voices of youthful pioneers throughout the planet who are as of now taking impressive steps towards Global Goals in the next decade. The Agenda for sustainable development, set by the United Nations in 2015, offers a model for addressing urgent global concerns such as unemployment, inequalities, global warming, below poverty line issues, and building a prosperous future for all by 2030.

Like other teenagers, Máximo Mazzocco, a youth in Buenos Aires, Argentina, was only 30 years old when he pondered what he could do about his city's trash issue. Máximo expressed, "Something inside me, 'I can't see the entirety of this and sit idle." Without even a second's pause, he finds his objective that he needed to accomplish in his life. He chose to work more enthusiastically to improve the existence of others.

Máximo began distributing leaflets on waste reduction and knocking on doors, explaining, convincing, and coaxing nearly 400 households in the neighbourhood about trash reduction. He understood Waste removal is a worldwide test. However, it's incredibly intense in Argentina, where there are more than 5,000 open landfills. Hoping to intensify his endeavours, he made the not-for-profit Eco House, propelled by the possibility that little activities can amount to enormous changes. Today, the organization runs Thirty programs. It will soon be in 23 countries, lobbying for the environment, training businesses to reuse and decompose, motivating youngsters to instruct over 70,000 schoolchildren in Argentina alone, and youngsters in several other countries.

A resourceless beginning!

For Máximo, the excursion as digital activism mirrors "The battle against environmental change" would not have developed quickly. At first, envisioning himself as low-tech activism without even cell phones appears complicated for him to begin his dream. As we all realize, cell phones are gaining attention prominently in every organization's operational activities these days. So Máximo created strategies to manage the economics of strikes, set up media campaigns, and reach out to locals to support the cause.

His zealous stance is now spreading via Eco House, a non-profit organization established in 2011 to achieve sustainability. The philosophical angle of Máximo's commitment to ambitious endeavours, like Global Goals for Sustainable Development. Minimal measures taken by a large number of people may have a significant impact.

A youth model of inspiration…

When Máximo found seagulls hurling plastic, that was a sorrowful encounter for him in his 20s. He recognized that over half of Argentina's populace is impoverished. As a result, he chose to help them. Ever since he has worked tirelessly with countless volunteers all across the country.  Máximo established Eco House, a non-profit foundation, to maximize environmental sustainability via education and awareness.  Máximo believes that our job as a generation to fill up the gap between the past and the present. The Ecohouse network encompasses over 800 people in Argentina alone and hence launching centers worldwide.

Togetherness "A key to success."

Máximo and his group focus on thinking globally while doing so effectively. Unity, he believes, is the driving force underlying any success, especially when tackling global challenges. Máximo believes that acceptance and cooperation between humans are more important than the pursuit of personal goals. If we do that, everything will get better as far as the environment and social issues will fall into place—active participation is the priority towards building a better world. Máximo further clarified that users could accomplish UNDP Global Goals with the Samsung Global Goals app by generating donations.

My life could be much simpler; however, I consider all as a waste of time until I offer something to my country.

Máximo clarifies that he doesn't need anything and he doesn't have to work all day for a good lifestyle. As indicated by him, he is always getting a decent line of work at any time. He could do, of course, but he doesn't want to. However successful he is, he still feels he has so much in store for people, much to teach them. He always believes that education and knowledge are vital to the changing of society.

Spilling message via convincing skill...

He trained himself concerning environmental issues and ecological welfare as a youngster. He then took to the streets in Buenos Aires to teach his community about reuse, eventually reaching 400 households in a matter of a few months. He had a talent for convincing the public. When Máximo founded Eco House, he enlisted the help of 11 volunteers.

Ecohouse "A ray of hope" …

His goal with Eco House is to educate not just about leading a meaningful existence but also to instil in every one of us the desire to serve others.

Every person then agrees to offer whatever they have, whether it is a speck of dust or brick and will do everything in their power to make the community a better place. Eco House has been in genuine activity for a very long time at this point, even though Máximo, as an organizer, isn't sure when it began.

Today, the affiliation gloats one of the locale's most extraordinary peoples of volunteers that is more than 700, ranking it the NGO with the maximum volunteers from Argentine. Eco House is launching a manure plant in the Argentine community to lessen debris in dumps by half act like a viable blueprint for other communities seeking to prevent contaminated water and hazardous emissions from waste incineration. Máximo centres around strategies of working closely with government organizations and ideological groups. In only one year, Eco House helped pass ecological laws in Argentina.

Making it a global movement is his desires to make this only Earth a better place to survive.
