Description:
To celebrate the “Cut Energy Cost Day”, Merit Sierra Leone executive board members designed educational resources to spread awareness about the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and the importance of saving energy. The team facilitated interactive workshops for pupils at the municipal secondary school and the Richard Allen school in Freetown.
More than 800 pupils benefited from the workshops and had the opportunity to extensively discuss the SDGs. As a result of this inspiring initiative, “Merit Richard Allen SDGs School Club” was formed and more than 100 members have already signed up.
