Greenpeace e.V.

Our vision is a peaceful and ecologically balanced world, where opportunities are fairly distributed, now and for future generations. But today's world is a different place. It is still a world marked by climate crisis, biodiversity loss, conflicts, wars and humanitarian disasters. We don't have a blueprint for overcoming global challenges. But there are levers that give hope – one of them is education. More specifically: education for sustainable development (ESD). It has immense potential to make ecological and social transformation a reality.

Whether at the political level or in practical work on the ground, Greenpeace is committed to ensuring that schools, universities, vocational colleges and school authorities fulfil their responsibility to prepare the younger generation for the future in the best possible way. Together, we want to empower them to protect the natural foundations of life and ensure democratic, peaceful coexistence.

We provide teachers at general and vocational schools with a wide range of print and digital educational materials, as well as further education and training opportunities. Practical projects such as ‘Schools for Earth’ show how ESD can be implemented in teaching and everyday school life.
