Grateful for the opportunity to join the 10th Youth Leadership Workshop on GCED by APCEIU. Excited to leverage newfound knowledge and networks to inspire change in my community. #GlobalCitizenship #YouthLeadership
As part of our sustainability approach to protecting the environment in Palabek refugee settlement, we have opened tree nursery beds to continue providing refugee community with trees to plant in their homes.
One tree saves a life.

Climate change, a crucial SDG 13 issue, demands action from youth. While awareness is high, deeper education is lacking. Are global efforts adequately preparing young leaders for effective climate action? #YouthEmpowerment

Let's plant more trees. Let's make environmental protection a priority in our works.
Education institutions must be more involved in the action by training children to be responsible.
