Girl Guides Australia believes that environmental sustainability is one of the most important issues currently facing the planet. The way we approach environmental sustainability right now will impact the life we lead in the future and how we interact with the environment. Girl Guides Australia has identified environmental sustainability as a priority issue on which to take a stand and speak out with a focus on taking ownership of our local environment.

Girl Guides Australia provides thousands of girls and young women with non-formal education, giving them the opportunity to develop self-esteem, confidence and life skills. Our vision is to build a better world through advocacy and action by fostering initiatives that promote environmental leadership. We aim not only to speak out on behalf of girls and young women in Australia and around the world, but also to empower young people to speak out for themselves and future generations. This will ensure intergenerational equity and sustainability.
