Student Green Ambassadors are part of the Green Campus Initiative.
ABOUT THE GREEN CAMPUS INITIATIVE
The Green Campus Initiative (GCI) is the first campus-based sustainability education and advocacy organization in Nigeria. GCI organizes and consolidates the efforts of college students on campuses across the world to be catalysts of transformative change. We train students and equip them with the tools needed to create result-based Green Initiatives through innovative academic research on their campuses. Through a teach-the-teacher model, we seek to multiply the passion for green change around the world.
