Project: Aim Green

Aim Green merges laser run and other endurance-based activities with ecological action to engage communities in Leiria, Portugal. The initiative brings together children, seniors, people with disabilities and youth from social housing to promote healthier lifestyles, while tackling environmental challenges such as pollution and biodiversity loss.

Through coastal clean-ups, invasive species removal and the planting of native flora, participants connect physical activity with environmental stewardship. By creating sports equipment and awards from upcycled materials, the project also fosters sustainability awareness. Aim Green aspires to build inclusive communities where sport and ecological responsibility go hand in hand.
