The Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) is the world's largest environmental education organisation, active in over 100 countries around the world. Through our five groundbreaking programmes, we empower people to take meaningful and purposeful action to help create a more sustainable world.
GAIA 20:30 BIODIVERSITY CAMPAIGN
September 2021 - June 2022
To disseminate our principles and encourage communities to take an active part in supporting and saving our natural environment, we launch a large Biodiversity Campaign, encompassing a set of activities targeted at different stakeholders to emphasise the importance of protecting nature. The campaign is led by the LEAF programme, and is open to the entire FEE network, Blue Flag, Eco-Schools, Green Key, LEAF and YRE.
Together, we can change the world!
GLOBAL ACTION DAYS CAMPAIGN
20th - 30th April 2022
In line with FEE’s GAIA 20:30 strategic goal of protecting global biodiversity and as a proud Supporting Partner of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, this year’s #GlobalActionDays campaign invites our FEE network to participate in small, positive actions, or #handprints, that protect, restore and celebrate global biodiversity.
Together, we can be the #GenerationRestoration!
The Great Plant Hunt
The Great Plant Hunt is a five-year project supported by the Toyota Fund for Europe that ran from 2015-2020. The project educated Eco-Schools students about the importance of biodiversity, with a particular emphasis on plant species, and aimed to shape young people into advocates for conservation. The project was implemented in 16 countries and engaged students in hands-on activities to promote biodiversity in their schools and communities. Educational materials for the project were provided by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew with funding from the Wellcome Trust.

Litter Less Campaign
The Litter Less Campaign is a joint initiative of the Mars Wrigley Foundation and Foundation for Environmental Education. Since its launch in 2011, the Litter Less Campaign has educated over three million students around the world about the challenges of litter and waste in their communities and empowered them to become leaders driving sustainability and positive behavioural change.
To learn more about the campaign, visit the Eco-Schools and Young Reporters for the Environment websites.
