Women United for Peace and Environment a member of Women in Climate Leadership was present at the International Women's Day Celebration with the women at Adaka community area of Benue State.

The event gathered different CSOs and NGOs across Benue state.

The women were enlightened on Climate Change and how it impacts not just their individual lives but even the security.

They were also taught on waste management because one of the contributing factors of climate change is waste management.

It was a wonderful event and the women were enlightened.
