ONE CHILD ONE TREE (OCOT)

#OCOTToTheWorld We are thrilled to celebrate #EMERGENCEONGDDRC bringing the One Child One Tree to schools in the DRC, Through tree planting, children are empowered to care for the environment while boosting their psychosocial wellbeing and connection with nature @Cambridge_Uni

Yesterday, we held a productive and forward-looking discussion with @BKGroupPLC We focused on advancing green finance, sustainable asset financing, and co-creation opportunities in agriculture and e-mobility. Building on the strong foundation between Rwanda Green Fund and BK Group, the meeting provided an important opportunity to further structure and scale impact-driven collaboration, leveraging our combined strengths to grow blended finance solutions and expand ESG investments with meaningful, lasting impact. Together, we remain committed to driving integrated partnerships that support sustainable development and climate-resilient growth for Rwanda. #GreenRwanda🇷🇼🌿#InvestInRwanda

When young learners plant trees, they’re planting the future. As stakeholders on this project, we are proud to support and celebrate the work of our nursery students. @EnvironmentRw @stefaninkigali @UCmhs @Cambridge_Uni

Today, at School For Excellence IMANZI, the children of nurseries classes have planted the avocados trees. Every class has planted a tree, and they will take care of it until they grow up. It was so amazing. @HuyeDistrict @OCOT_CF @stefaninkigali @EloisHerve
