About Green Generation Initiative

Green Generation Initiative is a non-profit youth-led organization creating a generation of environmentally conscious individuals by educating and empowering children and communities to love nature through experiential learning and on-ground nature-based solutions.

 We run programs focused on tree growing to help schools in Kenya establish green spaces in their compounds, instill an environmental culture amongst students, and address food insecurity amongst school-going children from the harvested fruits.

 We also enable communities to implement nature-based solutions to adapt to the climate crisis while propelling their socio-economic transformation through fruit orchards.

Our History

The Green Generation Initiative, founded in 2016 by the inspiring Kenyan environmentalist Elizabeth Wathuti, embodies a profound commitment to combatting pressing global environmental challenges. Growing up amid the lush landscapes of Nyeri County, Kenya’s most forested region, Elizabeth developed an intimate connection with nature from a young age, even planting her first tree at just seven years old.

However, as she witnessed the distressing transformation of the natural world she cherished, Elizabeth was driven by ecological grief to take action against deforestation and climate change. Today, the Green Generation Initiative is a beacon of hope, nurturing a new generation of environmentally conscious individuals through experiential learning and nature-based solutions.

Fuelled by a deep passion for conservation, the Green Generation Initiative goes beyond itself, aiming to make the world better for everyone, now and in the future. This effort is inspired by the belief that we are responsible for our planet, and by working together, we can create a greener, more sustainable future for all.

The initiative has since expanded its focus to mentoring young children to be climate conscious, establishing food forests in school, carrying out environmental education to school children, planting trees for birthdays and special occasions, capacity building and eco projects for communities, and creating awareness on climate change to the general public.
