CITW Nanthomba Cluster Reforestation Project

“They have come to believe that human wellbeing can come from healthy plants (vegetation and trees)”.

~ Boston Wadi – former Eco-Club member, now site manager and tree nursery attendant for the Nanthomba Cluster reforestation project.


Boston meets a maximum of 15 Eco-Club members twice a week, facilitating reforestation activities.

The sessions include: Environmental conservation lessons facilitated by Eco-teachers; COVID-19 and hygiene facilitated by local health assistants; and tree-seed sowing, all facilitated by Boston.


At the Nanthomba site alone, since April this year, four Eco-Clubs have managed to fill 5 000 packets. The target for this year is to raise 10 000 seedlings including agroforestry trees such as fruit trees, as well as timber and shade trees.
