\u201cTree cover loss in Uganda in the past few years stands at over 1 million hectares, with negative consequences for climate change,\u201d stated Michael Mugerwa, the Acting Chief Executive Officer at Uganda National Oil Company.<\/p>\n

The partnership is set to address this alarming issue head-on by focusing on conservation, afforestation, and reforestation efforts.<\/p>\n

\u201cUNOC has joined hands with the Church of Uganda to promote conservation, afforestation, and reforestation while supporting conservation,\u201d Mugerwa emphasized.<\/p>\n

The Church of Uganda, a significant and influential institution in the country, is ready to play a pivotal role in this vital mission.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Church is ready to contribute to the drive by stepping up mobilization efforts for conservation,\u201d affirmed Andrew Agaba, the Director of Household and Community Transformation at the Church of Uganda.<\/p>\n

This collaboration, as part of the UNOC-led Alliance for Climate Resilience, seeks to create a greener and more sustainable future for Uganda and the world.<\/p>\n
