The tree planting initiative forms part of the institution\u2019s ongoing efforts to support the Government of Kenya\u2019s environmental conservation agenda and the State Department for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) greening programme. TVET institutions across the country have been actively participating in tree planting and environmental conservation activities to contribute towards Kenya\u2019s national tree-growing targets and climate action commitments.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the exercise, the Deputy Principal, Ms Mathu emphasized the importance of environmental stewardship and challenged every member of the college community to take responsibility for nurturing and protecting the trees planted. She noted that tree planting is not only about increasing forest cover but also about creating a sustainable future for present and future generations.<\/p>\n

The Head of Department, Environment, Ms Lydia Okwaro, highlighted the critical role trees play in combating climate change, improving air quality, conserving biodiversity, and enhancing the beauty of learning institutions. He encouraged trainees to embrace environmental conservation as an integral part of their personal and professional development.<\/p>\n

The exercise provided an opportunity for trainees to actively participate in practical environmental conservation activities while learning the importance of sustainable resource management. It also strengthened teamwork and community participation among members of the college.<\/p>\n
