Activities will be run by my organization with volunteers, University officials and members of the University clubs.
The project's targeted group is about 1000 people to be served including University students, authorities, and members of the University clubs. The project will make them aware about the dramatic relation between those kinds of behaviors adopted by them and climate change responsible of deterioration of our natural resources like and which is contributing to the lack of water access in several regions around Cameroon and the world. The campaign will make them conscious about their ability to become responsible citizens who can contribute to the development of their country by adopting eco-citizenship attitudes in their daily activities for the safeguard of our planet ! The University will also decrease its amount bills yearly and get new trees planted inside the campus.
