A milestone for transforming climate impact in NYC's under-resourced communities
NEW YORK - eTradeWire -- Project Petals, a New York-based nonprofit dedicated to transforming under-resourced BIPOC communities through environmental advocacy, announced today that it has received accreditation from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). This rare honor, awarded to only 167 organizations in the US, recognizes Project Petals' impactful work in promoting sustainable and equitable communities.
This accolade underscores the nonprofit's success in creating green, healthy spaces and advancing climate justice. The UNEP accreditation cements Project Petals' status as a pivotal player in the international environmental movement. "Our environmental advocacy work demonstrably improves the environment in communities disproportionately impacted by climate change through healthy environmental spaces," said Alicia White, the Founder of Project Petals.
With the UNEP accreditation, Project Petals joins an elite group of global organizations recognized for their excellence in environmental advocacy. Their unique programs, which include urban conservation, green space creation, climate resilience training, and youth leadership development, have significantly improved the quality of life in BIPOC communities. This recognition underscores the nonprofit's commitment to creating lasting, positive change.

The United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) is the world's highest-level decision-making body for matters related to the environment, with a universal membership of all 193 Member States (https://www.unep.org/cpr/member-states-directory).
It sets the global environmental agenda, provides overarching policy guidance, and defines policy responses to address emerging environmental challenges. It undertakes policy review, dialogue, and the exchange of experiences, sets strategic advice for the future direction of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), and fosters partnerships for achieving environmental goals and resource mobilization.
For over 50 years, UNEP has partnered with diverse stakeholders to address the planet's most pressing environmental challenges and drive transformative change. UNEP safeguards ecosystems, strengthens governance, provides data-driven insights, and supports nations transitioning to low-carbon, resource-efficient economies.
