About Us

OUR GOAL

Our Initiative is aimed at reaching and impacting Ten Million people within the next five years on Climate Change restoration, mitigation, and adaptation by entrenching Sustainability in the Natural and Built environment.

Sustainable Green Environment (SGE) Initiative an incorporated Non-Governmental Organisation with its head office situated in Lagos State, Nigeria, West Africa, is a community of young people and professionals trained to become internationally recognized sustainable professionals.

Sustainable Green Environment Initiative (SGEi) is a leading NGO in West Africa, dedicated to promoting environmental sustainability, regenerative agriculture, sustainable energy, and community resilience through capacity building, nature-based solutions (NbS), and ecological restoration. SGEi empowers marginalized communities, especially youth and women, by improving livelihoods through green enterprise and sustainable development initiatives.

Within the next five years, our Initiative is going to train and support ten thousand young people and professionals from different industries across Africa to raise, drive and coach hundreds of individuals each on how to create awareness and execute projects that will connect the essentials of green environment, with keen attention on sustainability and possible ways to adapt to the changes in our environment.

We believe that ignorance of the modalities and benefits of driving an effort towards sustainable environment is a major cause of the resistance to the adoption of green environment in the African countries.
