Milard Apipawe Mugisha is an innovator dedicated to addressing climate change caused by deforestation and the lack of awareness around it. He is developing a solution through Eco_Grow, which provides households with eucalyptus seedlings, combined with his PoetryCravings initiative to use poetry as activism. By focusing on this work, he aims to increase tree cover, involve locals in eco-activities, and raise awareness of environmental issues. This work is deeply personal to him because, as a poet and activist, he believes in harnessing familiar cultural tools like poetry and afforestation to inspire action. With determination and vision, Milard is paving the way for sustainable solutions that make a real difference.
