This is a program where we get our children and the youth go and carry out community cleaning , collecting plastics, teaching community members hygine , how to make recycle plastic bottles where we teach them to make their own dustbins. We encourage members Not to cut trees but rather plant more trees as SDG number 13 states about CLIMATE CHANGE, we have a green house for trees where we ltr invite community members to come and learn more about planting trees without using plastics.
In this opportunity we take close to the community different sounds of our cultural drums. In Uganda we have over 50 different types of tribes with different music , dance and drums. And each drum sound has a historical cultural meaning about it. SO we encourage community members to gather and come be part of the small work shop and each get a chance to drum , be happy, get a smile hence teaching them about various programs like the SDGs and adhering to the government Covid SOPs.
