About the project

COMMUNITY COMPOSTING IS ANOTHER WAY TO RECYCLE

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Community composting is another way to recycle - Pilot Project will have as main objective to build community composters in order to valorise the organic matter that can be composted, transforming it into a natural fertilizer to be used in vegetable gardens or gardens (private and / or public), thereby enriching the land and reducing the amount of organic matter that is mixed with solid urban waste.

💼 What the programme involves

The work to be carried out will be: clean and prepare the 3 community composting facilities; construction and placement of the 3 wooden composters; construction and placement of 3 litter bins for placing the bio-waste transport bags; development and placement of 3 information panels summarizing the scope of the project, addressing the concept of community urban composting, its benefits, the waste that must be placed, etc; construction and placement of 3 wooden fences around the composting facilities; elaboration of materials for the dissemination / awareness of the advantages of using community composters (posters, flyers and videos for dissemination on social networks and distribution in the community).
