Make It Green: Amplifying Youth Voices for Climate Action

Make It Green (MIG) is a youth-driven climate initiative that uses the power of music, storytelling, and creative action to inspire environmental awareness and solutions. Born in Africa and built for the world, MIG empowers young people to raise their voices and lead the way in protecting our planet. By blending art with advocacy, the project contributes to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 13 (Climate Action), SDG 4 (Quality Education), and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).

What MIG Offers

Knowledge Translation
We turn big climate terms into simple, everyday language that anyone can understand—because everyone deserves to be part of the conversation.

Eco Aloud – Online Storytelling Series
Through short, engaging videos, we explain climate topics using storytelling, fun analogies, visuals, and youth voices. Eco Aloud makes climate education relatable, exciting, and easy to grasp.

Community Outreach
From classrooms to market stalls, cocoa farms to street corners—Make It Green goes where the people are. We engage communities in the languages they speak and in ways that resonate with their daily lives.

Creative Advocacy
Using music, poetry, and short films, we bring climate issues to life and inspire grassroots action. When words fail, rhythm and storytelling take over.
