Tree Planting Initiative by Sahrc Zambia in Kabwe District

Sahrc Zambia has been actively implementing a tree planting project in Kabwe District as part of its broader commitment to climate justice and environmental protection. This initiative is aimed at restoring degraded landscapes, promoting sustainable ecosystems, and contributing to the global fight against climate change.

Tree planting plays a vital role in mitigating the effects of climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which helps reduce greenhouse gas concentrations. Additionally, trees improve air quality, prevent soil erosion, enhance biodiversity, and support water conservation. In the context of Kabwe, where communities are increasingly vulnerable to the impacts of climate variability, such as extreme temperatures and unpredictable rainfall, this project not only contributes to climate resilience but also raises awareness on the importance of environmental stewardship.

Through community involvement, particularly among youth and local farmers, the project is building a sense of ownership and responsibility while fostering greener, healthier, and more climate-resilient communities.

Our SA 24 Climate Action Program-Mansa District

"Being part of the SA 24 project by SAHRC Zambia has opened our eyes to the urgency of climate action. We now understand that climate change is not just a global issue, but one that affects our daily lives here in Mansa. Through the climate action programs, we’ve learned practical ways to protect our environment, from tree planting to sustainable farming methods. SAHRC Zambia has empowered us to become climate champions in our own communities. We believe that with continued support and awareness, we can build a greener and more resilient future for everyone."

HOW WE CREATE MEANINGFUL CHANGE

Shelter of Agriculture Human Rights and Climate is a non-profit organization dedicated to addressing climate change and agriculture issues. We are committed to promoting sustainable farming practices, advocating for the rights of agricultural workers, and raising awareness about the impact of climate change on food security. Our team is passionate about creating a more resilient and equitable agricultural system for the future.

SAHRC Zambia approach is that of targeting youths and adolescents in promoting education surrounding agriculture, human rights and climate mitigation. This approach is arrived at due to the fact that, it is easier to change the way things are done when youths, and adolescents are engaged than when the elderly people are the only ones being targeted, this approach will also enhance sustainability of the organization programs in various parts of the country. Sahrc Zambia ensures to target this sector of citizens but of course with room to target those outside these categories to ensure equal access to the said advocacy areas of the organization and promote holistic development in agriculture, human rights and climate change mitigation.
