Our Projects and Initiatives
Our ongoing projects address critical issues, such as the Highly Hazardous Pesticides Joint Advocacy Project. Pesticides pose a major threat to public health and the environment, with tragic incidents like the Endosulfan-related deaths in Benue state underscoring the urgency of our intervention. Through robust research, community engagement, and advocacy, we work towards raising awareness, implementing sustainable agricultural practices, and influencing regulatory improvements.
Our past projects, like the Highly Hazardous Pesticides Social Media Awareness Project and the HHPs Study Tour, reflect our commitment to educating the public and stakeholders. We believe that knowledge is power, and by shedding light on the negative impacts of pesticide use, we contribute to building a healthier, more informed society.
