The Tree Planting Initiative of KIA-JDPH.
jdphfadminOur Tree-Planting Campaign in Northeast Nigeria.
The official launch of our Climate Change Action Project: Plant a Tree, Save the Earth was marked by the planting of 1,000 tree seedlings throughout North-Central and Northeastern Nigeria by Community Health, Justice, and Peace Initiative for Development in collaboration with Kerk in Actie. 
Our committed team travelled to Adamawa State from August 26 to 29 to visit the communities of Kumbula and Shuwa in Madagali LGA and Likuni in Michika LGA.
This initiative goes beyond planting trees. It is about nurturing hope, protecting our environment, and empowering young people to take ownership of the future they will inherit.
When we take care of the Earth, the Earth takes care of us, so we are working together to fight climate change and build stronger communities.
