: The Story of Eco Youths Network Uganda: Youth Rising for a Greener Tomorrow

In the heart of Wakiso District, Uganda, a group of passionate young people came together with one shared dream to protect the environment, empower communities, and create a sustainable future. This dream gave birth to Eco Youths Network Uganda, a youth-led, community-based organization committed to environmental action, education, and innovation.

Founded by Pacific Byiringiro, a determined young leader with a strong voice for change, Eco Youths Network Uganda was born out of the urgent need to respond to the environmental and social challenges facing the country. From climate change and plastic pollution to deforestation and youth unemployment, the issues were many but so were the ideas and the energy of the youth.

Starting with small clean-up drives and tree planting events, the organization quickly grew into a network of motivated young volunteers. They began working hand-in-hand with schools, local leaders, and international friends to raise awareness about environmental protection, waste management, and the power of youth engagement.

But Eco Youths Network is more than just an environmental group. It is a family a safe space where young people come to learn, share, grow, and take action. The team runs community workshops, trains young leaders, and organizes creative events that inspire change, including art for climate, eco-camps, and innovation projects using recycled materials.

In 2025, the organization launched a campaign to secure land for an "Experience Place" a space where young people can gather, learn practical skills, grow food, and build eco-projects together. With limited resources but a powerful vision, they turned to the kindness of local and global supporters through fundraisers, storytelling, and online advocacy.

Despite financial and logistical challenges, Eco Youths Network Uganda remains rooted in hope and determination. Every tree planted, every child educated, and every act of kindness shared brings the team closer to a greener, fairer, and more sustainable Uganda.

This is just the beginning. The youth are rising and Eco Youths Network Uganda is leading the way.

If Story

If I had my own camera every day, I would walk through the quiet paths of nature.

If I found a butterfly resting on a leaf, I would take a photo and freeze that beautiful moment forever.

If I saw frogs jumping by a stream or ducks swimming peacefully on the water, I would quietly watch, click, and smile.

If I could share what I see birds flying high, the sunset touching the hills, or the shapes of land we forget to notice maybe others would fall in love with nature too.

If we all saw the world through this lens, maybe we would protect it more.

Because sometimes, the smallest things a wing, a ripple, a breeze can remind us how beautiful life is

Cover Crops Alongside Main Crops Can You Grow Cover Crops Alongside Main Crops? Wondering if you can grow cover crops with cash crops, and why you might do that? Let’s explore. Cover crops are arguably the best way to improve soil health and fertility, but they often require a separate growing cycle. That can be especially inconvenient for gardeners with very limited space. I’ve run into that limitation in community gardens, apartment patios, and indoor gardening. My favorite solution is to grow cover crops among your food crops, which allows you to improve soil health while still yielding food. This typically takes the form of undercropping. Why Grow Cover Crops With Main Crops? Interspersing cover crop seeds with main crops is especially useful in small spaces, such as planters, raised beds, or rented plots at community gardens. In these spaces you often can’t afford to sacrifice an entire cycle only to […]

How to Grow Plants From Seed Indoors Starting plants from seed is one of the most freeing parts of gardening, as it removes reliance on the nursery and gives you full control over how your plants are raised. It also saves you an absolute TON of money once you’ve got it dialed in. This is such an important pillar of permaculture and I think is especially important for market gardeners and small-scale farmers who may not have access to bulk discounted plant starts. Combined with seed-saving, starting plants from seed gives you the keys to the entire lifecycle and growing process from start to finish. Let’s jump into how to start plants from seed indoors… Getting Started Growing From Seed The learning curve is fairly steep. Starting a few plants from seed may be easy, but starting hundreds or thousands to power a large garden or small farm is a different task […]

Hey dear friends, I grew up facing many challenges, and I still face some even now. But I’m truly thankful for the people who are helping me overcome them. Today, I’m so happy and proud my school director told me that I’m a true leader, and that means so much to me. I’m now the Founder and CEO of Uganda Eco Youths Network, a youth-led organization we started from our school. I'm grateful that whenever we request permission to promote it outside the school, we are supported. Our focus is on learning and teaching about sustainable projects. What we learn, we teach. Even though we don’t yet have all the knowledge about permaculture, I personally have started learning it step by step, and I believe that in time, I will be able to teach it fully. Our mission is to fight hidden hunger that affects both schools and communities by promoting eco-friendly and sustainable solutions. I’m happy for my transformation from zero to hero is my journey, and I believe the future is bright.

Hello dear friends I have two questions about my crop here..

1. "Can anyone help me identify what might be causing small holes in the leaves of my plant?"

2. "What natural or eco-friendly methods can I use to protect my plant from pests or insects that eat the leaves?"
