Environmental Education
Education and awareness about plastic, for communities and young people.
Our own students became Eco Warriors.
The education work began with the girls of the BambooShoot scholarship programme. They learned about single-use plastic first, then shared it with others.
Today the work reaches schools, youth groups and local government committees.
