Launched in 1993 by President Mikhail Gorbachev, GREEN CROSS INTERNATIONAL is an environmental non-governmental organization (NGO) that implements initiatives for a sustainable future for humanity and the environment. The Green Cross network, active in 31 countries, works to promote actions that can ensure a just, sustainable and secure future for all.

Green Cross encourages partnerships with key stakeholders and works closely with several United Nations organizations. Its main objective is to promote a global shift in values in order to generate more awareness of the principles of sustainable development.
