With the Project:
"EcoSMART: Educating and Empowering Youth for Environmental Stewardship

EcoSMART, led by the Center for New Technology for Development (CNTD), is dedicated to educating and empowering youth for environmental stewardship. Through educational programs, awareness campaigns, and collaborative initiatives, the project has successfully increased awareness of environmental issues among over 5,000 young individuals. More than 70% of participants have adopted sustainable practices such as water and energy conservation, recycling, and eco-friendly transportation. The initiative has also supported over 20 community-driven environmental projects, including tree planting and waste management, improving local living conditions. Additionally, over 100 youth have engaged in policy debates, advocating for stronger environmental protection policies. Through these efforts, the project has contributed to a 15% reduction in CO₂ emissions and diverted over 100 tons of waste from landfills. EcoSMART has proven effective in promoting sustainable practices, reducing environmental impact, and fostering a greener future for all.
