ANEG Foundation launches climate awareness and tree-planting project at Amedeka
The ANEG Foundation has launched a climate awareness and tree-planting initiative at Amedeka, bringing together 35 participants to promote environmental sustainability and encourage young people to take an active role in climate action.
The exercise, held on Friday, October 23, 2026, involved climate advocates, Environmental Club students and members of the foundation who planted fruit trees on a designated piece of land.
The seedlings included pawpaw, mango, lime and soursop, selected to expand green spaces and promote the environmental benefits of tree planting in local communities.
The initiative forms part of the foundation’s efforts to advance climate action, protect the environment and encourage youth participation in building greener and healthier communities.
The exercise began at 9:30 a.m. and ended at 11:00 a.m., with participants working together to plant the seedlings and raise awareness about the importance of trees in addressing climate change.
Monitoring to support tree survival
Beyond the planting exercise, the ANEG Foundation says it will conduct periodic visits to the site to monitor the growth and survival of the seedlings and ensure they receive the necessary care.
The foundation says the monitoring process is intended to improve the seedlings’ chances of survival and ensure the project delivers lasting environmental benefits.
It plans to extend the initiative to Natriku, Lubuse and Kasunya as part of efforts to reach more communities with its environmental activities.
Partners support climate initiative
The foundation has expressed appreciation to residents of Amedeka, climate advocates, Environmental Club students and other participants for their contributions to the exercise.
It also acknowledged Fairtrade and Golden Exotics Limited for sponsoring the initiative.
The ANEG Foundation says the project reflects its broader commitment to community-led environmental protection and inspiring young people to become advocates for climate action.
It hopes the initiative will encourage a culture of tree planting and responsible environmental stewardship, with continued monitoring and care expected to be central to its long-term success.
