1. Executive Summary
In this proposal the Environmental Protection Group (EPG) requests funding for its Environmental Development Project through Role Play in Schools. The project’s goal is to contribute to the reduction of environmental devastation and destruction through the implementation of role-play strategies that highlight concomitant preventive and behaviour change interventions. With this support, EPG will emphasize on increasing awareness practices and measurement requirements and work in close collaboration with partners toward the reduction of the burden of environmental devastation.

EPG will work in collaboration with the “Save Earth”, community-based organizations and International NGOs, promoting positive behaviour change through the Environmental protection Role play in schools project.
