Happy Workers Day!

Center for Opportunities and Rural Development-CORD-GHANA , in collaboration with NOBISCO–Tamale, proudly joins the global community to celebrate Earth Day 2026 with action-driven initiatives aimed at inspiring sustainable change among students and the wider community.

This year, we are turning awareness into action through impactful activities on campus:

🌿 Green Talk
An interactive session focused on climate change, plastic pollution, and how students can take meaningful action for a sustainable future.

♻️ Plastic Collection Drive
Students and members of the Green Schools Initiative (GSI) will lead a campus-wide plastic collection exercise, promoting responsible waste management and environmental stewardship.

🔄 Upcycling in Action
Collected plastics will be transformed into valuable resources, demonstrating practical solutions to reducing and encouraging practices.

🌳 Tree Planting Exercise
Over 20 seedlings will be planted to mark Earth Day, contributing to increased cover and a campus environment.

Together, we are empowering to lead the change towards a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable future.
