School-based civics club members of Osiauri village public school conducted an advocacy process to improve the school environment. They met with the representatives of local government and presented the results of the community survey on environmental issues.
At the meeting with the governmental officials, they also discussed the measures that should be taken to improve the environment. As a result of the successful advocacy campaign, the local authorities placed rubbish bins in the village and hande over 90 evergreen seedlings to the school, which were later planted in and around the schoolyard. The students took an active part in the greening and cleaning actions of the schoolyard.
