Inspire The Movement
Millions of people standing up to power continue to inspire change we once thought impossible. Shifting power and minds is our common struggle.
Africa driving the change
Our work seeks to connect Africa and the world. Greenpeace Africa challenges the practices that drive cultures of consumption, and the policies that tear down our forests, pollute our water and put our family’s’ health at risk. A better future is achievable. People are building a movement – together we can drive change.rnrnBe part of the movement to fight environmental injustices, expanding from Africa to the world.
