The Environmental Community Health Organization (ECHO) in collaboration with PAHO/WHO and the Ministry of Education has officially launched its ‘School in Action Against Climate Change’ programme.This programme aims at giving children a forum to take leadership on environmental issues in their school communities and to be young champions of positive environmental change.At the launching ceremony, which took place on Monday at the St. Margaret’s Primary School, Executive Director of ECHO, Royston King, said that the project has three platforms.The first phase involves consultations with key stakeholders, including members of the PTAs, teachers, and community leaders.He explained that a major aspect of this phase is training teachers who will be identified as coaches to help the children who will be part of the environmental clubs in schools.The next phase deals with commitment as the schools which were selected to participate in the project are required to sign on to an agreement with ECHO.The agreement stipulates that they must restrict the use of plastic and Styrofoam in their schools.These schools will pursue a vigorous education drive to encourage children to use alternative materials and to respect the natural environment.The third phase is the hardware phase, where garbage receptacles and water facilities will be installed in selected schools.
