About Us

Empowering educators across Asia to lead the transformation toward sustainable, equitable, and climate-resilient institutions.

What We're All About

EmpowerED for ESG is a flagship training initiative by the Green Growth Asia Foundation. We build capacity among university faculty, teacher educators, and academic leaders to integrate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into education systems. Our mission is to create a generation of climate-smart, equity-driven, and governance-focused changemakers.

Learn Something Every Day

“Every educator has the power to shape a more inclusive and sustainable world. We help them lead that change.”

Our Vision

Who We Are

"It is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows."

“It is impossible for a person to lead change if they believe they already know everything.”

Green Growth Asia Foundation is a globally recognized non-profit organization that supports sustainable transformation across governments, academia, and industry. Through EmpowerED for ESG, we provide practical, impactful training to educators committed to advancing climate action, good governance, and inclusive education.

We partner with organizations like ICLEI, ADB, IMT-GT, and Applus+ to deliver expert-certified training grounded in real-world institutional needs. From sustainability leadership to DEI integration, our goal is to build a network of empowered academic professionals ready to create lasting change.
