The United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) has a long standing relationship with Global Action Plan, particularly our tried and tested Action at School programme. Both organisations are united by shared values and the desire to create a sustainable society by empowering people to improve the quality of their lives.

"We are impressed by the many activities Global Action Plan undertakes with all levels of society, and as agreed by my predecessors I am pleased to continue the relationship to support their community-based sustainable development initiatives."

Achim Steiner, Executive Director UNEP

"Global Action Plan is extremely proud of its association with UNEP and wholeheartedly supports its wide range of excellent initiatives such as World Environment Day " (on the 5th of June each year).
