Green Initiative Challenge Expansion Project Schools Mapping Underway

The Green Initiative Challenge is a KenGen Foundation project in line with Kenya’s 2030 ‘Greening Kenya’ flagship program that assists schools in water catchment and ASAL areas in tree planting activities. The program recently received a partnership funding of Ksh.120 million to expand and involve over 900 schools and 140,000 students in the next 8 years.

The project is designed as a challenge to participating schools, mainly due to the dry weather conditions in the areas, with prizes awarded based on the highest survival rate of seedlings and the use of unique innovative ways to grow the trees. The best performing schools stand to benefit from attractive awards apart from infrastructural developments and education scholarships.
