Your Green Action

Program Overview

Your Green Action (YGA) is the environmental and climate action program of the Wang & Tangang Foundation. It empowers young people to understand climate change, adopt sustainable lifestyles, and become active drivers of environmental solutions within their communities.
YGA combines climate education, practical action, global collaboration, and youth leadership to address climate challenges—particularly in developing and underserved regions—by focusing on what individuals and communities can do today.

The Challenge

Climate change is one of the most urgent challenges of our time, yet many young people feel overwhelmed, anxious, and unsure how to act.

  • Around 70% of young people aged 16–25 are extremely worried about climate change, with even higher levels of concern in developing countries
  • Climate action often focuses on government-level policies, while individual and community-level actions are overlooked
  • Young people lack practical, step-by-step guidance on how to integrate climate action into daily life
  • There is no widely accessible global space for young people to share experiences, learn from peers, and act together

The Opportunity

  • Climate awareness among young people is rising globally
  • Young people are eager to change their habits but need guidance, community, and motivation
  • 71% of youth worldwide are active internet users, making digital platforms ideal for engagement and learning
  • Online learning has democratized access to education, especially in the Global South

Our Solution: The Your Green Action Fellowship

Your Green Action is built around a recurring online fellowship program, complemented by digital campaigns and community engagement.
Every three months, YGA brings together a new cohort of young people who:

Follow a structured online curriculum on climate change and sustainability

Receive step-by-step guidance to adopt eco-friendly behaviors

Participate in interactive sessions, challenges, and peer discussions

Share their journey and inspire others through social media and community action

What Makes Your Green Action Unique

YGA goes beyond traditional climate education.

A Fellowship, Not Just a Course

A Global Climate Advocates Network

Graduates become part of a growing network of climate advocates who share best practices and mobilize their communities.

Practical, Action-Oriented Learning

The program emphasizes daily, realistic actions—from consumption choices to lifestyle changes—that participants apply immediately.

Strong Global South Focus

Led by founders from Cameroon and China, YGA is intentionally inclusive and designed to resonate with youth in developing and underrepresented regions
