World Olympians Association – 5 Rings of Development
Environmental Awareness
Olympic Trees for Kids —This is a program in its inception with completed successful pilot projects in the United States, France
and Monaco. School children are educated on the environment and trees, then plant trees in remote areas designated for reforestation as well as Urban Reforestation.
- The program comes with specially created music and lyrics, for 6 to 12 year olds.
- The WOA and NOAs will incorporate Olympians as role models and educators of environmental topics.
- The WOA will ultimately include these activities in our film project themes, making the planting parties a possible topic for the Torch Awards entries, along with other Environmental Awareness Topics.
AEL —Athens Environmental Organization promotes and supports global Environmental Awareness through the Athens 2004 Games, with themes of Sport, Culture, Environment and Peace.
