Environmentalist lauded

 

“This is evident in Environment Africa’s approach of establishing and supporting Private Public Community Partnerships.
“The main focus in this approach is the involvement of communities that have often been left on the periphery of development initiatives,” she said.

Ms Nhekairo said partnerships were incomplete without the communities and development was incomplete if communities continued to be sidelined.
She said Environment Africa was complementing Government’s efforts of reforestation.

“The Ministry supports the “For Every Child, A Tree Campaign” as it seeks to bring awareness on the importance of trees to the young generations who are the leaders of tomorrow.
“I believe such initiatives are the way forward in addressing our environmental concerns as these affect us all and will have a negative impact on generations to come,” she said.
