Rwanda Connecting People to Nature
This year, Rwanda again gladly joins the international community in celebrating the 45th World Environment Day (WED), which culminates in the national environment week that started on May, 26.
Like in previous years, and in partnership with the Government of Rwanda, the One UN Rwanda team has organised and actively participated in diverse activities to raise awareness about the imperatives for protection of the environment.
All the activities are closely related to the theme of this year: “Connecting People to Nature”.
The theme for WED 2017 urges people to get outdoors and into nature, to appreciate its beauty and its importance, and to take forward the call to protect the Earth.
