The project aims at improving and creating conducive environment for children within the schools in Luwero District, Central part of Uganda. This will be achieved through formation of vibrant and inclusive environmental clubs and creating spaces as well as forums for children engagement to facilitate better learning environment in 05 government aided primary schools among vulnerable communities.
Outcome 1: Increased life skills and environmental literacy through co-curricular school clubs
