TFCG's Eco-School programme which emphasises education on environmental sustainability has a wide range of positive effects, as shown by a recent research article (linked below). The government must scale-up implementation of eco-schools for a more sustainable Tanzania 🌱🌍 doi.org/10.9734/ajes...

TFCG is the eco-school partner for Tanzania and we work in partnership with schools across the country to inspire the next generation of environmental stewards. We are proud to say that last year 101,132 students across Tanzania benefited from environmental education and micro-projects🌿🌍 #Ecoschools
