This year, Little Hands Go Green joined TUYU (The Unemployed Youth of Uganda) to celebrate the International Youth Day 2023. The theme for this year’s Youth day event was; “Green Skills for Youth Towards a Sustainable Future.” TUYU is an NGO in Uganda empowering youth for a brighter future by bridging education and employment.
Together with TUYU, we held an outreach for the ghetto community in Buyondo zone, Nsambya on August 12, 2023 with a “Let’s Go Green and Recycling” campaign with the youth. This outreach was also an opportunity to empower the youth in the ghetto with green skills.
Representatives from Mother Majeri Primary School, our long-time partner joined us as advocates for environmental awareness during the International Youth Day 2023 celebrations. Together, we shared solution-focused discussions and environmental awareness, coupled with a lot of fun.
Here are some moments from our Youth Day celebrations with the ghetto community.
