SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS

Central to the conduct of the programme is raising awareness among school children about the need and importance of protecting the environment and supporting environment protection development initiatives in their communities. The motive for implementing environmental programmes in schools has gone a long way in imparting relevant basic knowledge to adolescents about the need to protect and maintain the environment they live in. Targeting young people has been essential as it has assisted in the development of a mind-set that is environmentally friendly among youths which we hope shall be cascaded down to future generations.
