Why use Greenpop?
Greenpop has worked with local and international education partners for the last 10 years in delivering experiential learning with impact.
We do this by:
- Delivering tailormade programs to align with the age and required outcomes of our partners
- Creating experiences and curricula that draw on key themes
- Aligning our curriculum where possible with the UN SDGs and other local and global goals
- Our operations aim to ensure all elements of the camp and tours are run sustainably
- We focus on the positive, we avoid doom and gloom rhetoric. Our ethos is to inspire for impact rather than to focus on the negative. Getting active not anxious about the state of the planet is our mantra.
