Engaging the younger generation
It is overwhelming to share the progress of our YEEP 2 Project! Thanks to the amazing support and invaluable contributions of our partners, who are key players to the successful implementation of this activity. The project was a success at Miracle Comprehensive High School – Limbe. Over 70 students were engaged in an enlightening day of learning and hands-on activities focused on:
- Sustainability & Sustainable Development – Understanding how we can protect our planet for future generations.
- Environmental Protection – Exploring the current environmental threats and practical solutions; also uncovering the role the students have to play as youths in environmental protection.
- Climate Change – Discussing how it’s affecting our communities and how we can fight back.
- Waste Management – Encouraging the students to adopt sustainable habits and manage waste properly.
It was so amazing to witness the positive energy, ideas, and enthusiasm the students showed at every stage of the activity, and we can’t wait to see how they continue to engage in environmental protection. We look forward to getting more partners to promote and extend this project from the coast to other rural communities, where over-exploitation of biodiversity and plastic pollution are becoming serious conservation issues.
