Ready to nominate your school for the Green Data Collective?
The Green Data Collective brings Washington, D.C. educators into a cohort-based learning experience designed by Instituto Mundo Verde in partnership with The Cloud Institute. Educators are supported in turning their school campuses into living classrooms: where students collect, analyze, and act on real data about water, energy, waste, and air quality.

This isn't a one-time training. It's a full school-year commitment to building environmental literacy, data confidence, and habits of stewardship that last; all grounded in The Mundo Verde Way of joyful, inquiry-driven learning.
