Acep Eco Club

ACEP Eco Club is for everyone who is passionate about the environment; it is for the young and old. This vision started in 2008 with PEC-Primary Environmental Care and by 2010, we had reached about 100 schools across Rivers State with a total of about 3000 students.

In 2009, we started the Conservation Clubs in Secondary Schools and this has been responsible for environmental projects in the schools. By 2013, ACEP Annual Environmental Quiz and celebration of World Environment Day commenced and Project “Plant a Million Trees by 2020”. ACEP has been involved in awareness campaigns to promote tree planting and only about eight hundred trees have been planted.

In 2015, we started a program YOUTH – LEAP, which  involves graduates and students in primary, secondary and tertiary institutions. This is a five year Program and our Key performance indicator for the success of this Program is a million Trees by 2020 and a Large number of sustainable Agricultural Businesses.
