Kuruluş
Environmental protection is a pressing global priority, particularly in Nepal, where solid waste management poses significant environmental and health challenges. Rapid urbanization and changing consumption patterns increase waste, which, if poorly managed, causes environmental harm and health risks. In VIN s communities, improper waste disposal in schools and public areas contributes to littering and health issues like respiratory problems, diarrhea, and skin diseases. Non-biodegradable waste (NBW), especially in areas like Jitpurphedi and Kavresthali, further damages the environment and agriculture. This project, Environmental Stewards: Preserving Our Common Home, aims to promote sustainable waste management practices such as segregation, recycling, and composting, empowering communities for a cleaner, healthier Nepal.
