The Role of Schools in Forest Landscape Restoration (Tchamba-Togo Prefecture)

As part of the Forests4Future project in Togo, which aims to rehabilitate degraded terrestrial ecosystems, an initiative was launched to raise awareness among schoolchildren about the importance of trees, environmental protection, and land restoration. Called “Environmental Education in Schools,” this initiative has led to the creation of nurseries managed by members of “Environmental Clubs.” The species planted are chosen based on each school’s environmental projects, such as green fences and arboretums. The pilot phase is taking place in 10 schools in Tchamba—5 elementary and 5 secondary schools—selected according to criteria established in consultation with all stakeholders. Each environmental club, composed of 20 students, maintains gender parity between boys and girls.
