GGPI's education and environmental sustainability initiative supports students and promotes menstrual hygiene and tree planting across Kogi Central secondary schools.
The Global Green Pillars Initiative (GGPI) educational and environmental sustainability initiative has continued across secondary schools in Kogi Central, with the distribution of learning materials, scholarship support for students, reusable sanitary pads for female students and the planting of economic trees.
The programme, which builds on the flag-off of the initiative, is aimed at supporting academic development, improving menstrual hygiene among schoolgirls and promoting environmental sustainability in host communities.
According to the programme details, educational materials, including notebooks and writing supplies, are being distributed to 12 schools as part of efforts to support students and promote academic excellence.
Scholarship support is also being provided to students, although details of the beneficiaries and the financial value of the assistance were not disclosed.

Another key component of the initiative is the distribution and promotion of reusable sanitary pads to help address menstrual hygiene challenges that may prevent female students from attending classes.
The intervention is intended to promote dignity and confidence among schoolgirls while supporting regular school attendance and uninterrupted learning.
The programme also includes the planting of economic trees to encourage environmental responsibility and provide potential long-term benefits for participating communities.
Four schools listed as beneficiaries of the day’s activities are Comprehensive Secondary School, Ogori; Magongo Secondary School; Arigo Secondary School, Okengwe; and Local Government Secondary School, Upogoro.
The initiative combines educational assistance, menstrual hygiene support and tree planting as part of a broader effort to strengthen secondary education and encourage sustainable community development across Kogi Central.
