Green Wave, the radio show produced by the Env.net Team in TEMA Foundation is sponsored by Env.net for the coming two months. September 22nd was the 18th broadcast of the series.

This week on Green Wave we talked about the “Adım Adım Initiative” and TEMA’s own “Fellowship of the Trees” Project. Adım Adım is a volunteer-based social initiative in Turkey that promotes charitable giving through sponsorship for sports like running, cycling, swimming and trekking. Formed in 2007 Adım Adım is Turkey’s first charity running group and as of 2011 it was the largest amateur running group in the country.[1] Emel gave a brief introduction on the Adım Adım Initiative and explained the logic behind it.

On November 13th, TEMA as a part of the Adım Adım Initiative will run the Eurasia Marathon to raise funds for the Fellowship of the Trees project, which is a ecological education programme initiated by TEMA’s Education Department.
