“One Student, One Plant Campaign” UWS Nepal
United World Schools Nepal successfully organized its “One Student, One Plant Campaign” to mark the World Environment Day 2022 on June 5. Every student of UWS Nepal schools was involved in the Campaign for collective and transformative action to protect our environment. Along with this, parents, local ward representatives and teachers also participated in the campaign.
A total of 6,000 plants were planted in the UWS Schools by 6,000 students of the 51 UWS Schools in Sankhuwasabha, Gulmi, and Taplejung districts. The plants that have been planted include bay leaf, Rudraksha, various kinds of herbal plants, seasonal flowers, and local fruits such as mango, guava, orange and lychee among others.
“Change starts with one action from one individual leading to one big change – mitigating climate change and its effects on our planet and our communities. Our “One Student, One Plant campaign” is the road to that action,” said Surya Karki, UWS Nepal Co-founder and Country Director.
