Introduction
Improper waste management is a global issue and has negative effects on the environment. Due to a lack of space to store their waste and a lack of education many communities around the world still burn or bury their trash which has a huge negative impact on our planet. This is down to a lack of support or viable effective options for waste management which is what this project aims to change.
Report
This project aims to provide guidelines and resources to assist in the setup of recycle centres in rural and hard to reach communities across the globe.
Future plans include:
Funding for biogas to power a school and manage school and household waste
We have sent the final payment to our Fiji community to fund the collection of the recycling from 2 Islands to take to the main Island. We are now handing this project over to GVI Fiji and the local community team.
