Environmental Education Unit

This department is involved in the social and economic progress of the country on quality education. They aim at education and equality among people, providing environmental awareness for children who are the future for better planetary care and connecting to nature. Unfortunately, most underprivileged children worldwide and in Africa and Cameroon especially, have inadequate the means to basic education because of extra costs (school fees – private schools, cost of uniforms and badges, transportation cost, feeding, and learning materials like textbooks, exercise books, pens, and pencils) attached to schooling. Most children do not know about the elements of their environment, and how to appreciate and preserve them. This department tries to bring education and equality to the local population through the use of funded implementation projects. The Centre develops, coordinates, and conducts several educational programs for schools, in both formal and non-formal streams of education. To this end, we carry EE in schools through Eco-clubs, outdoor activities, mega competitions, and excursions. EE endeavors to bring a hands-on, field-based, dimension to school education through opportunities offered by governmental and non-governmental initiatives such as the eco-clubs, camping, education in and around Protected Areas
