In a wonderful collaboration to help protect nature and get young people excited about it, the  Avian Conservation Uganda Society (ACUS) and Friends of Nature organized a special day trip  to the beautiful Entebbe Botanical Gardens (https://visitentebbe.org/entebbe-botanical-gardens/ ). This event was attended by 35 enthusiastic young  people between the ages of 9-16 and aimed to inspire them to care for the environment. 

Set in the peaceful surroundings of Entebbe, the gardens provided a perfect backdrop for a day  full of fun and learning. The activities included birdwatching, talks, quizzes, and games, all  designed to help everyone feel closer to nature. 

The main focus of the day was on birds. Led by experts from ACUS, the  group went on exciting birdwatching walks to learn about different birds and why they’re so  important for keeping our environment healthy. 

During talks and discussions, everyone got to understand more about why it’s vital to protect our  planet’s plants and animals. They learned how birds help keep nature in balance and why it’s up  to us to look after them. 

As the day went on, there were lots of laughs and friendly competitions, making the learning  even more enjoyable. 

By the end of the trip, everyone had pledged to do their bit to help protect nature in their own  lives. With new knowledge and enthusiasm, these young nature lovers left the gardens feeling  ready to make a positive impact. 

The teamwork between ACUS and Friends of Nature shows how powerful it can be when people  come together for a good cause. By inspiring young people, we’re helping to create a brighter  future where nature and humans can thrive together.
