The '''Greenship Project''' is a key initiative of [[ASEZ (The Church of God University Student Volunteer Group)|ASEZ]], the [[World Mission Society Church of God]] University Student Volunteer Group. It connects individuals, communities, and nations to fulfill their environmental responsibilities as global citizens. Since environmental issues cannot be solved by a single individual, organization, or country alone, the project fosters global cooperation to promote environmental protection. A significant aspect of the Greenship Project is its focus on university students—future leaders who take the initiative in addressing social and environmental challenges. By acting as a driving force, students raise awareness and encourage participation across various sectors of society. As of November 2021, ASEZ has partnered with 168 government institutions, 226 international organizations and civic groups, and 56,168 individuals worldwide to further its mission. | The '''Greenship Project''' is a key initiative of [[ASEZ (The Church of God University Student Volunteer Group)|ASEZ]], the [[World Mission Society Church of God]] University Student Volunteer Group.
