RECYCLING PROGRAMME
JEMA’s campaign against littering has resulted in a recycling programme at the University of Dar es Salaam. Before this initiative, the discarded plastic bottles were removed and burnt off site resulting in further pollution. These bottles are now being recycled.
JEMA-UDSM CONDUCTING OUTREACH PROGRAMS
JEMA-UDSM has been doing some outreach programs in primary schools. So far Jema has managed to conduct environmental Education though its City Greening Campaign in 12 Primary schools at Kinondoni District, 50 Primary school at Temeke Districts and 31 Primary Schools in Ilala district from 2005-2008.
HELPING THE ENVIRONMENT
JEMA’s established tree Nursery on campus is producing both fruit and decorative trees grown from seed. It has raised over 4000 tree seedlings and decorative trees annually and the numbers are increasing. The fruit tree saplings are later transferred to nearby Primary Schools as part of the JEMA and Seeds for Africa initiative Trees for Schools Project in the Dar es Salaam area. Each child is responsible for their tree which will not only enhance their diet but provide food and shading for the local community.The JEMA Nursery has also been responsible for the University of Dar es Salaam Campus Greening Project protecting the environment and providing fruits and preventing soil erosion. More than 36,000 trees have been planted and the figure is continually increasing.
