  1. Much thanks to Global Environmental together with St. Andrews University and MLADINFO for helping the youung and for opening our minds on matters environment.

    Even now we have put work in progress.

    I know it’s only a day to final touches, even if my group doesn’t win, I request you that you consider my group in later times in helping my group through scholarships, bursaries or any support necessary for the group’s growth.

    Thanks in advance
