About Green Belt Movement
The Green Belt Movement (GBM) is a pioneering environmental organization founded by Nobel Laureate Wangari Maathai in 1977. Based in Kenya, GBM focuses on sustainable development through tree planting, conservation, and empowerment of communities, particularly women and girls. With a remarkable track record of planting over 51 million trees, the movement champions efforts to restore critical watersheds, combat climate change, and promote democratic practices.
GBM engages in various initiatives, including the National Tree Planting Initiative and community-driven income-generating activities. Their advocacy work underscores the importance of environmental sustainability, highlighting the interconnectedness of ecological balance, human rights, and social justice. The legacy of Wangari Maathai continues to inspire global action and volunteerism, encouraging individuals to participate through tree planting and supporting environmental programs.
The Green Belt Movement serves as a beacon for grassroots activism, showing that collective action can lead to significant ecological and social transformation. Join them in cultivating a greener future and enriching lives
