Liberty Assurance Donates Tree Seedlings To Replenish Seeta University Environment
The story
Seeta University has received 2,000 tree seedlings from Liberty Life Assurance Uganda in partnership with Climate Hub International as part of a campus-wide tree planting initiative aimed at environmental restoration and long-term monitoring of planted trees.
The seedlings will be planted across the university’s more than 100-acre campus under a coordinated plan involving both the university and project partners.

Liberty Life Assurance Uganda Managing Director Joseph Almeida said the initiative is part of the company’s environmental focus under its ESG framework in which the company will donate 5,000 seedlings to different universities around the country.
"We have decided to collaborate with institutions of higher education on tree-planting initiatives, and we chose Seeta University as our starting point. We plan to target other universities for tree planting as the year progresses. Our primary goal is to create a pollution-free environment through afforestation,” he said.
He said the intention is to ensure tangible results from this project.
"We have implemented a triangulation method to record the specific types of trees planted and their exact locations. This allows us to coordinate the project geographically and track our progress precisely. This is a major step forward for Liberty Life Assurance Uganda as we deepen our commitment to environmental sustainability," Almeida said.
Acting Vice Chancellor for Seeta University, Dr. Maurice Tamale confirmed receipt of the seedlings and said the university would oversee their planting and survival.
“Seeta University has a strong agricultural component, and when Liberty and Climate Hub approached us, we were grateful for their initiative,” Tamale said.
