EEG understood since its inception in 1991, the importance of imparting environmental knowledge among the youth at the root level. Therefore, it launched a carefully curated set of annual educational programmes in 2001, to engage the student community in learning and adopting sustainable practices that contribute to the well-being of the planet and sustain our future.
Our educational programmes are one of the strong pillars in aiding the nation’s sustainable vision. By embedding environmental literacy into the everyday lives of the student community, it can foster a sense of responsibility in them and equip them to make conscious decisions about their actions that directly affect the health of the society and the planet.
Continuing forward on this path to this day, EEG engages and unites enthusiastic and committed students across the MENA region and provides them with meaningful platforms to share, learn, connect, collaborate, express, and voice out their opinions for the betterment of the environment. EEG’s educational programmes are categorised in four broad-spectrum approaches as Art, Awareness, Research, and Advocacy & Outreach, raising proactive young individuals, who hold the baton in bringing and leading the transformation towards a sustainable future.
In the year 2023, the ‘Year of Sustainability’, EEG left no stone unturned in organising Pan-Arab programmes linking students across the region as well as globally under the mission of addressing emerging climate threats headstrong, finding effective solutions to counter the environmental downfall, and continues to do the same this renewed ‘Year of Sustainability’ as well.
These programmes contribute towards the fulfillment of the UN SDG no. 4 (Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all)
