Environmental presentations

The core of the Children for Green New Nepal project is centred on raising environmental awareness among children grades 5 to 10 by giving presentations in schools and orphanages on environmental issues. We have given presentations over 100 different school and orphanage, and at many of these sites, we gave multiple presentations before different classes.

The presentations were given by our volunteers, guided and assisted by the coordinating staff. These volunteers created the artistic presentations on chart paper from coloured pencils, coloured markers, and watercolors. The presentations covered topics such as Global Warming, Air Pollution, Water Pollution, Climate Change, Deforestation, Overpopulation and Waste Management.

Each presentation consisted of a 5-10 minute summary of the key points of the topic, including causes, effects and solutions, designed to introduce younger students to that topic and to reinforce learning already being done in the classroom. Presenters were trained in asking questions and creating a dialogue with students to verify learning and encourage feedback.
