CorpsAfrica Green is an initiative that positions CorpsAfrica Volunteers as part of the solution to environmental problems in Africa and beyond. This low-cost initiative focuses on environment-related training so that Volunteers recognize and address climate change issues in their host communities from a scientific perspective.

By living in rural communities, Volunteers can serve as a resource to the community for broader local climate action; they will liaise with development partners to test environmental innovations and bring back critical information on how their local communities are affected by and adapting to climate change, and lessons learned.

Participating in the Green Initiative gives you the chance to be part of something bigger than yourself, protecting the environment while creating real impact in your community.It’s also an opportunity to grow as a leader, raise awareness about environmental issues, and become a champion for sustainability in your community. 

A CorpsAfrica Green project is any community project with a climate change and environmental focus facilitated by a Volunteer. Examples include establishing green infrastructure, restoring ecosystems, recycling initiatives, and environmental education. CorpsAfrica recognizes that there is no single solution to climate change. Protecting the environment and building resilience require changes in all areas.

Volunteers facilitated environmental and climate change projects across their host communities before the CorpsAfrica Green initiative was created. The initiative aims to build the capacity to address climate change alongside communities.

We are planning to launch the CorpsAfrica Green Fund Soon.
