Green Leaders
National Parks Green Pathways is a collection of programmes to support careers in the Green Economy.
Green Leaders is our training and engagement programme which supports young people as leading voices and active participants in the Green Economy and conservation through, for example, working as Young Rangers in National Parks. Green Leaders is about giving young people the opportunity – today – to take a leadership role in caring for and protecting our National Parks, nature and the environment.

The people you work and learn from are either professional rangers, environmentalists or volunteers who are older and have amazing knowledge and experience. You have to adapt and absorb as much as you can.
