Environmental Education Programme
Bana ba Bobirwa
Bana ba Bobirwa means ‘Children of Bobirwa.’ The 6 rural villages bordering the Northern Tuli Game Reserve are directly exposed to nature. Many children aren’t aware of the significance of preserving these environments. Bana ba Bobirwa changes that.
How You Can Help
‘If children grow up not knowing about nature and appreciating it, they will not understand it, and if they don’t understand it, they won’t protect it, and if they don’t protect it, who will?”
– Sir David Attenborough
