About the initiative
The Regreening Gana Street Initiative is an FCTA-supported project by 309 Green Earth Foundation to restore the environmental quality of Gana Street, Maitama, as it changes from a residential district into a busy mixed-use corridor. It has two components:
- Sustainable Waste Management: improving refuse collection and disposal, clearing the blocked drainage that contributes to flash flooding, and supporting public enlightenment.
- Tree Planting & Landscaping: restoring the tree canopy, improving air quality, and making the street more liveable.
Delivered with government, businesses and residents, it is designed as a model that other communities can replicate.
What we want to achieve
Five goals guide the work on Gana Street.
Restore tree canopy
Improve urban biodiversity
Beautify Gana Street
Encourage community stewardship
Support climate resilience
Why this project matters
Gana Street is one of Abuja's busiest urban corridors.
Restoring its tree canopy will improve the streetscape, provide shade, enhance biodiversity, and contribute to a healthier urban environment for residents, commuters, and businesses.
