Through our Climate Change Adaptation Initiative, Botswana Red Cross Society, Chobe Branch, reached learners at Pandamatenga, Lesoma, Kazungula, Kachikau, Satau and Parakarungu Primary Schools and Leswanii CJSS. Through discussions, group work and debates, learners explored climate change, disaster risk reduction, preparedness and environmental protection, and shared their own ideas for keeping their communities safe.
Together with the Department of Forestry and Range Resources, each school received 10 fruit and shade tree seedlings. Learners planted them with guidance from Forestry officers, learning how trees provide shade, support food production and protect the environment.
Each participating school was recognised as a Climate Change Champion, receiving a certificate and trophy for its commitment.
One learner. One action. One tree at a time.
