We launched the One Youth, One Nursery
initiative two months ago with a vision to empower youth girls at the
grassroots level. As part of this program, young girls from 20 villages in
Daudkandi were provided with seeds of 10 indigenous plant varieties to
cultivate in their home gardens.
Today, we are proud to see their incredible
progress. Many of the plants have grown well, and some participants have
already started harvesting fresh vegetables from their gardens.
To appreciate and encourage their dedication,
we organized a small recognition program. Among them, three outstanding young
leaders—Tanha, Habiba, and Rohaiba were selected as 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place
achievers. All of them were rewarded with a new set of seeds to further expand
their gardening journey.
This initiative has created strong motivation
among both the girls and the wider community. It completes a meaningful
cycle community women preserve seeds, pass them to the girls to raise saplings,
and the girls return them as plants to grow vegetables ensuring continuity,
ownership, and sustainability.
One Youth, One Nursery is not just about planting seeds, it’s about growing confidence, independence, and a sustainable future.
