Aim: The Forgotten Green Heroes is a non-governmental and non-political organisation that seeks to build capacity among the local forest communities and indigenous people at home and abroad, to better engage in decision making about issues that involve them; and to improve and safeguard the livelihood, well-being and culture of the people living in and from the forest (the indigenous people and their elites where ever they are).
Objectives:
- To enable human resource development through focused training, mentoring and learning by doing approaches.
- To strengthen communication, education, awareness-raising and knowledge sharing on climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies at community levels.
- To encourage and strengthen full participation of Indigenous people and integrated approaches in planning, decision-making, implementation and monitoring of communities' interventions.
- To promote sustainable forest management, animal husbandry, aqua-culture and fruit trees planting to help eradicate hunger, alleviate poverty, ensure food security, improve livelihoods and develop communities.

Yes the indigenous people have to participate in making decisions on issues that concern them because they are the ones affected by those decisions. Great objectives
