Schools ECO & Health Clubs

The School Climate and Health Clubs initiative aims to empower Liberian students by fostering awareness about climate change, health, and sanitation. By integrating experiential learning, practical activities, and community engagement, we can create a holistic approach to student well-being and environmental stewardship.
