Green Action Week 2025 is here, championing the sharing of skills, resources, and tools to reduce waste, fight greenwashing, and build lasting sustainable habits.

We have a series of events designed for young people to inspire them to embrace sustainable lifestyles. Be part of the movement: host a clothes swap, start a seed-sharing circle, or lead an upcycling challenge.
Are you in? Small steps, big impact!

Climate Action Month 2025 was an incredible success, reaching over 8,000 individuals, including students and the general public. Throughout July, a series of engaging events took place across schools, colleges, public parks, and other venues. These events creatively conveyed the urgent message of climate change through a variety of artistic expressions, such as music performances, mime acts, flash mobs, and puppetry. The month served as a powerful platform for raising awareness and inspiring action on climate issues.
