Our behaviour is rapidly destroying the environment upon which we all depend. The ActiveEarth Foundation is meeting the urgent need to motivate people to live in more sustainable ways.


We support education projects that use experiences of nature to inspire people to live sustainably. These experiences help people realise that they are part of nature and that their own wellbeing depends on looking after each other and our environment.
Goals
  1. To promote healthy relationships between people and the environment through inspirational outdoor education projects
  2. To motivate people to lead social change towards a more sustainable world
  3. To build a network of people to support the Foundation’s projects and encourage others to get involved
Approach
We support projects that use experiences of nature to change the way people feel, think and act towards each other and the environment.

Changing the way our society treats the environment begins with each of us personally. Experiences of the natural world combined with expert facilitation, adventure activities, discussion and teamwork are an effective way to help people realise that they are part of nature. They also realise that their own wellbeing depends on looking after each other and the environment. This awareness catalyses the individual changes that lead to long-term social change. Our approach is based on over ten years of research and development and has been successful for a wide diversity of people and organisations.
