Our Legacy
Five years of impact – and counting
We’re making bold progress toward our vision of a world where nature is at the heart of every decision – and young people lead the way. Guided by the legacy of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, Connect with Nature has become a powerful movement for change.
In just five years, we’ve engaged over 2.5 million youth across the UAE and mobilized thousands to take action for the environment. This remarkable momentum reflects the passion and determination of young people to shape a more sustainable future – for our country, and for our planet.
- 14,000+ youth engaged
- 32,000+ volunteer hours for nature
- 250+ immersive events
- 26,850+ data points collected for science
What began as an effort to introduce youth to local wildlife and wild spaces has blossomed into a powerful movement.
Many of our youth ambassadors have grown into environmental leaders, organizing community events, championing sustainability, and advocating for nature on regional and global stages.
