Plant-for-the-Planet Academy Malawi, 5. march 2012

Malawi had for the first time in history held a Children’s Academy organized by  Rev Tad Juma, Youth pastor, Church of Central Africa  Presbytery.

This Academy took place on 5th March at the Nkhoma Synod Youth offices , Msokhamanja , in the Capital.

It was a very great invent that drew attention of people   across Malawi where 100 Children participated and planted trees at the end of the workshop.

We started the Academy at 9hrs in the morning and ended up at 16hrs .

It was really liked by all participants and the children have vowed to become the first Ambassadors to climate change issues and it was really touching .

The workshop came to a climax when these children sang different songs  asking the for an urgent action to the general community to join hands with them in addressing climate injustices.

There after came time to receive a T-shirt, books, fliers and certificates.

100 Children from around Lilongwe City schools came and you may see them from the photos.
