The project aims to optimize waste management in Al Mwaqar with a view to improving the health and well-being of the local population. It includes comprehensive waste assessments, awareness-raising and education initiatives, and collaboration with local stakeholders. The ultimate goal is to reduce pollution and the negative impacts of inappropriate waste disposal.
The main activities of the project are as follows:
Empowerment and training of the local community to set up small income-generating and savings-generating initiatives based on waste management, with an emphasis on the participation of young people and women.
Training participants to set up waste collection and sorting systems at the town hall, including garbage can filling, and a pilot project in the local community (10 households).
Awareness-raising campaign involving key players from the public and private sectors and local community representatives, with media coverage.
Training of active CSOs on sustainability actions and income-generating initiatives based on recyclable materials
