Community & civic
YALI Network Kano community initiatives
Community programmes run by YALI Network Kano during his term as Secretary General, including a tree-planting project and a back-to-school drive.

Context & problem
YALI Network Kano organised the Tree Planting Project 2025 with the Kano State Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, part of the state's five-million-tree campaign, and a Back-to-School Drive in October 2025 with partner organisations.
Why it mattered
Both programmes put young people to work on visible, local problems: tree cover and school attendance.
