We do not only grow trees for Uganda and campaign for tree planting but also teach the public about climate change and benefits of tree planting through writing environmental related articles in news papers
School Yard Habitat
Youth Go Green started a “Youth Environmental Activists (YEA)” Program! It is a youth-driven network of University & high school environmental clubs in public & private Education Institutions. YEA program is based on the principle that educating, engaging, and empowering youth in their teens can lead to long-term civic engagement and critical leadership on climate change solutions. Under this campaign, we had a one week tree planting campaign in Uganda Christians University (UCU), Makerere University Business School (MUBS)-Mbale campus, IUIU and all secondary schools in Mbale.
Sensitization, Trainings, Workshops
Youth Go Green has had sensitization training / workshops in Environmental conservation and HIV/AIDS for both youth leaders and university students. For example in National Teachers College – Kaliro, Makerere University Business School (MUBS) – Mbale, Uganda Christians University (UCU) and Mbale District Youth leaders under the Theme “Integrating HIV/AIDS into environmental conservation”
Plant a tree, see it grow!
