PRCS Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Promotes Climate Awareness Through Wall Chalking Initiative in Peshawar

Peshawar — The Pakistan Red Crescent Society (PRCS) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, with the support of the German Red Cross (GRC) and BMZ under the Climate Adaptation through Community Resilience Approach (CACRA) Project, organized a Wall Chalking Activity along Main Palosai Road, Peshawar, to raise awareness on climate change and environmental protection.

The initiative aimed to inspire public engagement and promote sustainable environmental practices through creative expression. Young PRCS volunteers participated enthusiastically, transforming city walls into colorful canvases filled with powerful messages advocating climate action, conservation, and community responsibility.

Through their artwork and messages, the volunteers highlighted the importance of collective action against climate change, emphasizing that small, community-based efforts can lead to meaningful global impact. The activity not only beautified the cityscape but also served as a powerful visual reminder of the urgent need for environmental stewardship.

Speaking about the initiative, PRCS KP officials noted that such awareness campaigns foster a sense of unity, creativity, and responsibility among youth, aligning with PRCS’s broader mission to promote resilience and sustainable living within communities.
