Green adventure
The Creative Green Adventure is a transformative program that connects people with impactful environmental projects and inspires audiences through authentic, purpose-driven content.
In November 2024 we brought together 12 environmental leaders and media professionals for a 10-day immersive experience in Portugal. Participants engaged with 12 environmental projects, developing storytelling, collaboration, and conservation skills. The Creative Green Adventure exemplifies a successful blend of environmental action and creative collaboration, resulting in meaningful contributions to conservation efforts and community empowerment.

Participants engaged in activities such as planting indigenous trees, collecting data for research facilities, building giving back mindset and hosting cross-generational workshops that connected environmentalism and creativity.
