The GREEN Program (TGP) is an award-winning, experiential education program for young leaders in sustainable development. Our mission is to educate and empower future sustainability leaders through innovative models of experiential education, travel, and adventure. Belize is home to the second-largest barrier reef in the world, and a leader in reversing coral bleaching efforts. Recently, Belize finalized the largest debt-for-marine conservation deal with the Nature Conservancy, and is providing other countries with a “blue” financial model for conserving some of the world’s most vulnerable marine ecosystems. Paired with rich culture, history, biodiversity, and exciting adventures, Belize is a top destination to add to your bucket-list!
On this unique 10-day program, participants will explore sustainability and ocean conservation through experiential education, service-learning, professional development, and intercultural learning components in Belize. Learn from Belize’s local community experts, participate in citizen science, and take action for a sustainable future with service-learning projects. Discover the impacts of grassroots initiatives, and the intersectionality between life on land and life below water. Pack your bags, grab your bucket-list, and join TGP for a sustainability adventure of a lifetime!
