We have taken our greening project to another level. We utilise every opportunity to plant trees. Today @AhmedBaba_Fall@ValentinTapsoba and the District Development Coordinator for Chipinge planted fruit trees at the Tongogara ECD centre to be transformed into an Infant school.
It's an honour hosting the UNHCR Regional Director @ValentinTapsoba & @AhmedBaba_Fall. We had a progressive engagement on our humanitarian-development nexus towards refugee protection. We are committed to the cause.
UNHCR Regional Director for Southern Africa @ValentinTapsoba visited Tongogara Refugee Camp to take stock of how our projects are enhancing refugees’ self-reliance. I thank the government and our donors and partners for supporting these projects and helping refugees thrive.
