UNESCO Green Citizens
A global voice for local actors of change.
UNESCO Green Citizens is the bridge between UNESCO’s scientific expertise, local citizen solutions and young people’s willingness to act against climate change.
UNESCO has identified over 150 local initiatives across 65 countries which are citizen driven, innovative, impactful, and replicable solutions across five key themes for the fight against global warming and to preserve the environment: Biodiversity, Ocean, Education for Sustainable Development, Indigenous and Local Knowledge, and Hydrology.
