About Us – THINK GREEN

A youth-led movement for a cleaner, greener Tanzania

Born in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, THINK GREEN transforms the belief that “our environment is our home” into action. What started as a small student club tackling local litter has grown into a vibrant, community-driven initiative empowering youth, children, women, and entire communities to create a sustainable future.

Youth Environmental Leadership

Through events like ECOLEADERS RISE 2025, we inspire young changemakers with workshops, creative forums, and innovation sessions, turning their ideas into impactful climate action.

School Outreach & Education

Our school-based environmental clubs bring tree planting, climate education, and eco-literacy to students, fostering green spaces that enhance learning, food security, and community well-being.

Community-Led Conservation

We design community-based projects—from tree-planting campaigns to cleanups—that provide shade, nourishment, and dignity while uniting people to protect their environment.

Events, Advocacy & Recognition

From environmental festivals to earning nominations like Environmental Champion at the TEYA Awards, we amplify youth voices on national stages, proving young people are powerful agents of change.

Partnerships for Impact

We collaborate with partners like @globalplatform_tanzania, @climate.fresk.tanzania, and @africaforsdgs to scale our efforts and create transformative opportunities.

Our Vision

A sustainable Tanzania powered by bold young leaders and empowered communities—a world where environmental responsibility is a way of life. At THINK GREEN TZ, every small act, from planting a tree to sparking a conversation, fuels global change.
