Not only do we cultivate environmental knowledge, but we self-empower the scholar with cultural and socio knowledge through creative expression during group participation.

Whilst cultivating environmental awareness, we lead the scholar on a creative journey of self-empowerment to discover and express their own lion-hearted qualities.

The King of the Beasts oversees his reach and diverse land; animals, plants, minerals and people. He does this with Dignity, Integrity, Loyalty, Strength, Courage and Love.

These inspiring leadership qualities embodied by Lion, lie imbedded within each of our hearts. Through re-connecting with nature, we re-connect with our own lion-hearted spirit empowering us to make responsible decisions.

We not only focus on the White Lion awareness, but that which the king of the beasts stand for. We incorporate all creatures and all cultural heritages.

Through emphasizing the similarities between the scholar and nature’s characteristics, the scholar discover that he and nature are one.

Through creative participation the scholar re-connect with his own lion-hearted creativity, realizing his own part as creator of his own life.

The more aware and in-touch the scholar is, the better responsible decisions the scholar can make on all facets of life.

Our mission is to aid not only in cultivating environmental knowledge, but to self-empower the scholar with cultural and socio knowledge through creative expression.

 LYOP works hand-in-hand with the White Lion Eco-Cubs.

Through this program, we empower communities, generate cultural revival, sustainable living and conservation of an important living heritage. 

We, like the Global White Lion Protection Trust, believe that conservation information and education are vitally important to our children’s formative years. We focus thus on the youth for sustainable living.
