Very few young people in Malaysia are empowered to address real-life environmental challenges.
GreenSmiths engages 7-24 year old youth in northwestern Malaysia. By facilitating in-school programs (primary and secondary schools) and project-based rainforest expeditions (16-24 years old), we empower youth to shoulder real responsibilities and encourage youths to continuously rethink how we engage with the natural world. We aim to inspire them to be innovative in addressing real-life environmental situations.

Rainforest expeditions
GreenSmiths provides participants (school or public) a 3-day rainforest expedition to Ulu Muda Rainforest in Sik District, Kedah, Malaysia.
The 3-day rainforest expedition will include a pre-expedition training program where participants are trained on sustainability, climate change and personal leadership. Whereas in the rainforest expedition, participants will have the opportunities to hike, explore caves, visit natural hot-springs and watch wildlife. They will help researchers by collecting research camera traps to monitor animals in the forest.
The expedition will be facilitated by GreenSmiths staff and supported by Earth Lodge Malaysia experts.
