UENR Ladies Association on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, observed the Month for International Women’s Day with Pupils of the UENR Basic School. The Association together with the pupils planted various ornamental plants at the School’s premises to beautify the environment and to promote the national flagship programme of Greening Ghana.
The event was graced by the Registrar, Dr. (Mrs.) Georgina Asi Owusu where she lauded the Association for the initiative to impact the culture of preserving the environment among young people. She urged the teachers to ensure the pupils nurture the plants to grow well, which also forms part of training them to become environmentally friendly.

She said the celebration was also to create an atmosphere to reunite and share memorable moments as contemporary career women. She appreciated the membership attendance towards activities of the Association.
