For a sustainable, just and peaceful future
Greenpeace Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is an environmental organization, established in 2018 to address the unique and complex environmental and climate challenges facing this region we call our home. As a politically and financially independent non-profit organisation, we are dedicated to empowering local communities and collaborating with allies to develop innovative and practical solutions that help people to live in harmony with the environment.
We are part of the global Greenpeace network that includes 25 independent organisations across 55 countries. We do not accept funding from governments, corporations, or political parties; instead, we rely solely on the generosity of individuals and independent foundations to support our mission. We welcome all who share our values and vision to join us in building a greener future for the ultimate benefit of our people and the planet.
Our vision
Together we will conserve the diversity and richness of our region’s natural treasures and communities so that our children thrive with dignity in a peaceful, sustainable, and just future.
At Greenpeace MENA, we work creatively and collaboratively to reduce the environmental, economic, and social impacts of climate disasters and push local and innovative solutions empowering our communities to flourish and live in harmony with their environment, and we extend our hand to all interested parties to cooperate in achieving this.
