Investigate, promote & Implement

Climate Change Abatement

GIWA is working actively to investigate, promote and implement technologies and programmes that can help control the impacts of climate change and protect the environment, populations and precious natural resources,

Creating changes in paradigms

One Child, One Tree

GIWA is working with schools to get as many children to plant as many trees as possible in their schools.  With the One Child, One Tree Program, each child is inspired not only to plant a tree, but also taught how to care for and be committed to their tree.

Prioritizing Planting Trees

In these days of global climate change, pollution, growing populations and resource depletion, trees provide a crucial answer: cleaning the air, providing fresh water, cooling surrounding temperatures and providing food, medicine and shelter for countless species. GIWA has thus made the plantation of trees a priority.

Aman Ekta Hariyali Yatra

The Aman Ekta Haryali Yatra, organized by the Jamiat Ulema-i-Hind (JUH), Global Interfaith WASH Alliance (GIWA), Parmarth Niketan, and the Jamiat Youth Club, brought Hindu and Muslim faith communities together to take climate action, combating together the devastating effects of environmental degradation and climate change.
