Résumé
Youth-led non-governmental organization. Our focus has been on tree planting and ensuring sustainability through environmental awareness and advocacy.
Description

Panacea Charity Foundation is a youth-led non-governmental organization. Our focus has been on tree planting and ensuring sustainability through environmental awareness and advocacy, with the belief that our call is to evolve into strong change-makers in terms of resisting climate destruction and environmental degradation.

Setting aggressive tree-planting goals and enforcing legislation that will stop mindless and unneeded deforestation is essential to finding solutions to the world's dire climate issues. Recent research has shown that planting trees is the most effective, natural strategy to fight climate change. There is now no machine or technology that can absorb carbon dioxide and other hazardous gases more effectively than trees.

We spread the word about the value of tree planting to lessen the adverse effects of climate change on our society. By generating employment opportunities, preserving habitats, and regenerating biodiversity through tree planting, we hope to build a sustainable environment.

Historique

We have been bringing together people, community-based organizations, school-aged children, and stakeholders in planting trees together to reduce the catastrophic effects of climate change. We have, thus far, planted 135,382 trees in and around Kano, and by 2023, we hope to tripple that number and cover several Nigerian states with roughly 1,000,000 trees in each state.

The majority of our trees come from a range of species that provide us with food, herbs for medicine, and those with high carbon sequestration potentials.

Our project also complies with other SDGs' indicators and targets, including Zero Hunger and Sustainable Cities and Communities, in addition to Climate Action.
