The Unicef programme, Climate-smart Villages, which HESCF is supporting, is helping 20 villages by providing clean drinking water (through the installation of water pumps and reservoirs, pipes and irrigation systems) and by building sustainable provision for electricity. It also provides eco-toilets that operate without water and teaches children and their parents about climate change (for example, by setting up a vegetable garden in schools). The goal is to create a green and sustainable environment for 50,000 people, half of whom are children. Click here to watch the movie.
This project resonated with the HESCF Board as an innovative and practical way to support vulnerable children in their daily lives, helping them to learn and thrive.
