Taking Action at Schools and Beyond
Schools. It’s where global change starts. In 2007 a number of schools aligned and created the The Green School Alliance, a powerful peer-to-peer network and sharing platform, driven by students and their schools to inspire ideas and actions on sustainability.
Uniquely created by schools for schools, the GSA is a global peer to-peer network of schools represented by Sustainability Coordinators — students, faculty, staff and administrators — working together to solve climate and conservation challenges. GSA member schools share and implement sustainable best practices and promote connections between schools, communities, and the environments that sustain them. We do this locally and virtually by creating peer-to-peer forums, exchanging resources, offering original programs and curriculum developed by member schools, and connecting youth to nature. GSA schools set goals and quantify progress.
Membership to the GSA is FREE and based on
your school Sustainability Commitment to take
action in any (or all) of Three Tracks:
I) Reduce Your Ecological & Climate Impact;
II) Educate & Engage Your Community; and
III) Connect to Nature & Place.
GSA programs integrate education and action to create meaningful change. They include the Green Cup Challenge, The Student Climate & Conservation Congress (Sc3), Green Schools Renewable Energy Purchasing Consortium, the Green Journal, and GSAx Events.
GSA also hosts a Student Blog and has an extensive, crowd-sourced, searchable Resource Center and Ask the Experts Section, a Discussion Forum, and Video Ocean, all with the end goal of accelerating sustainability best practices that will ripple across communities and unite the schools that are leading the transformation to global environmental sustainability.
