The LEMA Creation Curricular project is aimed at integrating forefront climate science into the theological programs of the LEMA Theological Seminary. Located in Mbaitoli, Nigeria, the project targets the unique ecological vulnerabilities of the Southeastern region of Nigeria such as severe soil erosion, gully formation, erratic rainfall, agricultural disruption etc. This project will embed scientific data regarding climate change, environmental justice, and food security directly into our theological curricula.

The Project Team will comprise LEMA’s academic leadership, senior theological faculty, LEMA Students/graduates with science backgrounds as well as local environmental scientists or researchers within the eastern region of Nigeria.
