Green Cross International

Education for Sustainable Development

awareness

EducationGreen Cross International is also working to include both children and adults through its Environmental Education and Awareness Programme established by the Green Cross National Organisations with projects such as "Environmental Diaries" created by Green Cross Japan. Many other Green Cross affiliates have also established environmental education and awareness projects with promising results. The idea is to educate and infuse children and adults with a positive awareness of and responsibility for the environment. GCI understands that many of the issues faced by the planet will not be solved immediately, which is why it is important to give children an understanding of the links between the problems of security, poverty, and the environment.
