UBWECS was back again at our Ghanzi education camp for a second round up of assisting in the up keeping of the camp in June 2015. UBWECS is a student- oriented environmental club mainly concerned with safeguarding of Botswana wildlife, environmental conservation and environmental awareness. The UBWECS offers voluntary services to different non-governmental organizations, local schools and Botswana communities. They collaborate with these organizations in environmental activities and events such as environmental fairs and environmental commemoration days. Activities lined up for UBWECS while at Ghanzi included assistance in renovations and general maintenance of the camp, class time to share on EE, conservation and livestock management issues. They also staged a drama play focusing on disaster management techniques and the importance of assisting those affected in time of need. Even more exciting and to wrap up their visit, they held a friendly debate amongst themselves by discussing the motion: Should Botswana compensate loss of human life due to problem animals? At CCB, we are very delighted to have hosted them and we would like to extend our gratitude to UBWECS, for the wonderful job they are doing to the nation and do look forward to hosting them again and again!
