The Go Green Campaign is an
initiative of ICYC, started in 2018, to make youth from the Asia and Pacific
region aware of the threats posed by climate change and to take
small steps to counter the effects by planting trees on International Mother
Earth Day. The campaign showcases the role youth and cooperatives can play,
through self-help and solidarity, in sustaining their environment.
The theme of this year’s Go Green
Campaign 2.0 was, ‘Protect your Species’ through ethical planting. It was
co-led by the ICYC and the ICA Africa Youth Network and carried from April 21
to 23. Over 200 youth from both the regions took part in the campaign. The
campaign was preceded by an online workshop in which information was shared
about the theme, use of banner, tool kit, and social media handles. The
workshop was conducted by ICYC Chairperson, Mr. Ahsan Ali Thakur and Ms. Hilda
Ojal, President of ICA Africa Youth Network.
