Having learned about the effects of plastic pollution in previous lesson, this plastic craft session gave pupils the opportunity to think beyond disposal and discover how everyday plastic items can be put to better use at home.
Children learn by doing.

It's been proven that methane emissions from the waste sector can be reduced with technologies that are already available. But how can cities build organic waste management systems that work over the long term, while including the workers and communities already providing essential waste services?
Supported by the @CCACoalition, GAIA and our local partners in Bandung (@ypbb_id), Durban (@groundWorkSA) and Valparaíso(@AnarchComunica) answer that question. In this blog, our Global Climate Director Mariel Vilella discusses what these three cities teach us about financing inclusive waste systems.

📚 Our recent lead poisoning prevention sensitisation engagements at St. Piran’s School and GSS Tudun Wada have highlighted an important gap: many pupils still have little or no knowledge of lead and the risks it poses to their health.

⚠️ Lead is a toxic metal that can harm human health, particularly children's developing brains and nervous systems.

Children deserve environments where they can play, learn, and grow without the risk of lead exposure. Preventing contact with lead should be a priority everywhere.

The future we want starts with the choices we make today.
Choose zero waste. Reject false solutions.

At CFEW, we believe sustainable change is not built from a distance. It is built with people, within communities, and one step at a time.
Plan A: Always showing up for communities.
There is no Plan B.

What is one reusable or sustainable item you remember using?
