Saturday's upcoming launch at Freetown Teacher’s College of our innovative school's programme made the national news with widespread press coverage in AYV News, Independant Observer, AWOKO Newspaper and the Sierra Leone Telegraph helping raise awareness about climate change in the third most vulnerable country to it's dangerous impacts.
The collaborative pilot project, jointly developed by Sierra Leone School Green Club and Society for Climate Change Communication and funded by Sierra Leone Poverty Alleviation Charity Trust aims to create a network of 10 Green Clubs in schools giving practical support to pupils to take adaptation measures.
The project aims to improve environmental awareness and governance in schools, using participatory approaches that bring together stakeholders to share experience on climate change mitigation and adaptation and will also develop the skills of pupils and promote environmental friendly lifestyles so that pupils can protect their environment and mitigate the impact of climate change.
