At Green Living Association, our foremost commitment is to instill the principles of sustainability across every facet of our lives, recognizing it as the pivotal subject for students and their families in reshaping our future.
We launched the first Environmental Education campaign, ‘Kids’ Action to Restore Environment’ (KARE), in 2007. This initiative encouraged students in Lahore schools to participate in the inaugural Green Quiz, which highlighted the growing gap between common lifestyles and environmental preservation. Recognizing that environmental degradation stemmed from human exclusivity consciousness and a lack of genuine will, GLA established its vision and objectives.
The message of green solidarity has now been extended to the entire nation. Now, the majority of renowned private school networks, services school systems and individual institutions across Pakistan are our Green Partners, with hundreds of thousands of students and their families participating annually in our green initiatives.
We extend our deepest gratitude to the visionary leadership of our partner educational institutes, whose unwavering commitment and enduring green solidarity have been the driving force behind Pakistan’s renewable energy revolution. Without their dedication, the dream of a greener nation—powered by clean energy and sustainable practices—would have remained distant.
Working:
At Green Living Association, we’ve been busy educating students and families about Environmental Conservation through colourful and engaging activities. We’ve organized Green Exhibitions, Environmental Quizzes, Green Performing Arts, Carnivals, and Environmental Walks. What makes our approach unique is that we declare each participating student a Green Ambassador and recognize their efforts, which has greatly contributed to the success of our collective efforts.
Through participation in our green activities, students and their families gain insights into the critical environmental challenges facing our homeland and the planet. They also understand the pivotal role of human action in effectively addressing these challenges. This engagement empowers them to brainstorm innovative initiatives as future leaders and stakeholders in environmental conservation.
Achievements:
We have reached significant milestones through the completion of three 5-year campaigns: ‘Kids’ Action to Restore Environment (KARE),’ ‘Collective Action to Restore Environment (CARE),’ and ‘Collective Action to Control Climate Change (CATCH).’ Green Living Association is currently running its fourth 5-yearly practical campaign, ‘Save Environment with Evolved Knowledge’ (SEEK). This initiative aims to raise global awareness about fundamental environmental and social concepts, illustrating how human activity has contributed to environmental degradation and how focused, collective action can effectively address these and other critical challenges.
Our Journey has not Finished:
This journey of crafting Pakistan’s green future has been so meaningful because of our Green Partner Educational Institutes, Students and their Families – visionaries who turn hope into action, and dreams into reality. Our Green Partners do not just teach sustainability; they live it, planting seeds of change that are now blossoming across our nation. Every solar panel installed, every student educated, every community transformed stands as a testament to what solidarity can achieve.
As we approach our renewable energy targets, let’s pause to celebrate how far we’ve come – but also renew our promise to the Earth. The road ahead remains bright because we walk it together. With your leadership and the enduring spirit of our Green Ambassadors, Pakistan’s green revolution will keep shining brighter than ever.
