In these workshops and trips to the community, this is a question of raising awareness among this category of people who have a certain authority to educate their peers to spread the message as far as possible because, in turn, will reapply them in their respective communities. and after there will presentation on the SDGs sketches in public in presence of local leaders so that the whole mass meets how it is urgent to take care of the Sustainable Development Goals for the well-being of the sustainable future of the following generations.

Social Cohesion / Peacebuilding

Young people are both actors and victims of conflicts in Africa, this cycle can end if they are sensitized by the right person.

Activities like boys ‘and girls’ inter-neighbourhood football matches, games on the subject “YES to peace, NO to violence”, gender equality will probably be imperative.  Football matches of men and women organized so that there is a good relationship between people from different neighbourhoods to break the old barriers that divide people according to neighbourhoods and in the end,

who agree on sustainable development issues in the purpose of teaching them nonviolent communication.  On the contrary, youth is often used as shields in the event of war or conflict because most of them live in extreme poverty and in this case that are easily manipulated. It is in this perspective that the idea of designing an organization was born so that the population is not used as puppets but that it must participate in peace consolidation, conflict resolution, and contribute in sustainable development because they have both physical and intellectual strength but also know the situation of their brothers and sisters.

Inspired by RESOLUTION 2250, And this fits well with the United Nations resolution of 9 December 2015 which advocates the inclusion and participation of young people in the consolidation of peace and security, their effective participation in socio-economic, political, environmental and cultural development hence the name 2250 which bears the name of this resolution. ISHAKA 2250, it is to describe the courage, the strength, the will that young people have and that must be used in the prevention and resolution of conflicts, in the establishment of sustainable peace, the activities of teaching young people non-violent communication is urgent.

This is good because having many young people is a major asset following the contribution they can make to peacebuilding and economic, cultural and innovative prosperity.

Television, on the other hand, is a demonstration medium par excellence which will show the importance of implementing the Sustainable Development Goals through documentaries, theatres and certain children’s games.

Climate Action Initiatives

Nature is suffering and is clearly urging a call to action. In order to contribute to the fight against climate change, various activities are in place, notably the revegetation of the foothills of Mumirwa, the watersheds of Lake Tanganyika and along the rivers and streams crossing the city of Bujumbura in order to reduce and if possible eradicate the various climatic hazards (floods, landslides, bacterial and vectorial diseases as well as other resulting effects) and the elimination of waste (especially plastic and sachets) and invasive plants in order to contribute to the protection of Lake Tanganyika and its biodiversity.

The establishment of nurseries for seedlings in different localities of the country will facilitate reforestation activities in order to improve the services offered by ecosystems, namely: air and water purification, climate and diseases regulation, erosion control, moderation of floods and drought as well as renewal of soil fertility.

Initiatives climatiques

La Nature souffre et nous envoie des signaux forts que cette génération ne peut pas tolérer. Dans le but de contribuer dans la lutte contre la variabilité climatique, différentes activités sont en place notamment la végétalisation des contreforts de Mumirwa, des bassins versants du lac Tanganyika et le long des rivières et ruisseaux traversant la ville de Bujumbura dans le but de réduire et si possible éradiquer les différents aléas climatiques ( les inondations, les glissements de terrains, les maladies bactériennes et vectorielles  ainsi que d’autres effets qui en résultent) et l’élimination des déchets (plastiques et sachets surtout) et des plantes envahissantes afin de contribuer à la protection du lac Tanganyika et sa biodiversité.

La mise en place des pépinières pour les plantules dans différentes localités du pays va  faciliter les activités de reboisement afin d’améliorer les services offerts par les écosystèmes à savoir : la purification de l’air et de l’eau, la régulation du climat et des maladies, le contrôle de l’érosion, la modération des inondations et de la sécheresse ainsi que le renouvellement de la fertilité des sols.
