The programme
Three things every girl leaves this hub with
Climate action you can measure
Plan a tree planting day, start recycling at school, run an awareness campaign — then log every result and watch the totals grow.
Confidence and leadership
Girls most affected by climate change design the best solutions. The hub turns lived experience into visible leadership.

Meet CLAI, your cloud guide
CLAI lives inside the hub and answers your questions any time — about a lesson, a project or a climate idea. Open her camera and point it at your school yard or street: she estimates how many trees are already growing there and tells you which trees suit that spot, and why.
- Ask anything, in plain words, and get a short helpful answer.
- HD camera scan of your area, straight from your phone.
- Tree count, ground cover and what to plant next.

Girls learning together, one short lesson at a time
Why this matters
Many girls in Zambian schools and underserved communities finish their education without touching a computer, and without ever being asked what climate change is doing to their own neighbourhood. Both gaps push them out of the jobs and decisions of the next decade.
Digital confidence
Practical skills that lead to further study, work and self-employment.
Climate literacy
Understanding local causes and solutions, not distant statistics.
Evidence of impact
Logged actions give schools and partners real figures to stand behind.
Questions girls ask us
Who can join the hub?+
Any girl aged 12 to 24, in school or out of school. Teachers and club patrons are welcome to register their learners too.
Does it cost anything?+
No. Every lesson and tool in the hub is free, and pages are kept light so they load on modest data.
Do I need a computer?+
A phone is enough. The hub works on small screens and lessons are written for phone-first learners.
Is my information private?+
Yes. Your profile, lessons and logged actions are visible only to you. Community figures are shown as totals, never as names.
