“The mission of Roots & Shoots in the UAE continues to grow in strength and impact. Each year, more and more young people step forward. Environmental stewards, ready to champion change and protect our planet. This not only nurtures the next generation, but also builds a legacy of hope, passion, commitment and responsibility.
“Their energy and creativity are a true testament to the power of youth-led action. By equipping them with the right tools, it creates lasting change that benefits both local communities and the wider planet, ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.” – Colin Firth
