Go Green started in 2018 as a project of Huis van Compassie in Nijmegen,
the Netherlands to help immigrants and newcomers live more energy
efficient. In the same year Nijmegen city was awarded as European Green
Capital. A key winning factor was involving citizens in policies through
methods called Green connect. The government needs to provide readable
and understandable knowledge for the newcomers. Where Go green was
locally recognized as a key figure to mobile people that were not widely
involved in the municipality green movement. The initiator of Go Green
Nijmegen is Adam Elhaj (originally from Sudan) trying with another
Sudanese group living in the Netherland to replicate Go Green in Sudan.

Go Green seeks to become the leading organisation in Sudan to raise environmental awareness that leads to improve the living and the environment together.
Our mission is to raise environmental awareness through an effective community involvement where everyone participates.
Our core value is to transform mindsets into green, and therefore our motto stems from three environmental drivers: People, Planet and Profit (PPP).
The 2023 of Go Green Sudan strategy is very ambitious, as it seeks with its partners to combat climate change and mitigate its damages.
In a world fraught with numerous challenges and conflicts, there lies an untold story—the cry of the environment suffering from neglect and degradation. This journey takes us to the heart of the disaster, revealing the impact of human actions on our environment and public health.
On the occasion of the International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in War and Armed Conflict, Go Green Sudan initiative, in collaboration with “Journalists for the Environment,” “Jabraka News,” and “EcoNile,” is organizing a seminar titled “The Roadmap to Environmental Reconstruction Post-War.”
Go green Sudan will mobilize the youth, the women and the street
children; in particular to transform them into driving forces for the
implementation of the program. Go green will employ a number of teams,
with priority to the youth; depending on the budget, and mobilizing a
large number of volunteers to implement the green activities. Besides the
awareness raising, GOGREEN program starts with the idea of waste
management in terms of the notion; Plastic Soup or plastic re-cycling. In
this program the cities in Sudan, starting with the capital cities, will be
cleared from its plastic menace which is the biggest environmental threat
at the present time and which is extremely obvious, yet becoming an
intractable dilemma. In Khartoum, there is a considerable number of
street children, who collect the plastic from among the waste in order to
earn a living. GO GREEN Sudan aims to organize and regulate these
endeavors and transform them into profitable projects and eventually
improve the livelihoods for those children. This major activity will include
all urban areas in Sudan
The purpose of this form is to collect information concerning environmental violations (personal and collective) that have occurred in Sudan since the outbreak of the war on April 15, 2023

Sudan is going through difficult transitional conditions politically, economically, and socially. This transition has led to the ineffectiveness of state institutions, resulting in a significant void in the principle of the rule of law, especially in aspects related to environmental protection in the current situation.
