Our Programs
Four pillars. One mission. Tangible impact.
Pillar 1: Community Sensitisation & Education
Behaviour change starts with understanding. We deliver our flagship 50‑Topic Community Curriculum — the most comprehensive, Pidgin‑friendly environmental education series in the South‑South.
- ✅ Town hall meetings and community dialogues
- ✅ School environmental clubs and assemblies
- ✅ Market women sensitisation walks
- ✅ Radio jingles and talk‑back shows in Pidgin
- ✅ Social media campaigns with local hashtags
- ✅ Door‑to‑door household education on the Two‑Bag System
Pillar 2: Waste‑to‑Wealth & Green Enterprise
We prove that cleaning the environment can put food on the table. We build the bridge between the waste in the gutter and the recycler who will pay for it.
- ✅ Youth‑led door‑to‑door collection micro‑enterprises
- ✅ Community aggregation hubs for bulk selling
- ✅ Upcycling cooperatives (sachets → bags, tiles, mats)
- ✅ Composting enterprises for market women
- ✅ Waste picker formalisation and safety training
- ✅ Linkage to state, national, and international recyclers
Pillar 3: Ecosystem Restoration
We don’t just stop the damage — we actively repair it. Our hands‑on restoration work brings communities together for visible, lasting change.
- ✅ Quarterly mangrove clean‑ups and seedling replanting
- ✅ Beach and waterfront restoration (Ibeno Beach, coastal communities)
- ✅ Plastic bottle house demonstration projects
- ✅ Street sanitation task forces with CDA partnerships
- ✅ Tyre upcycling for community beautification
- ✅ Urban greening with compost from market waste
Pillar 4: Advocacy & Environmental Justice
We ensure the community’s voice is heard in the halls of power. We hold polluters accountable and demand systemic change.
- ✅ Citizen reporting training (document, report, escalate)
- ✅ Polluter Pays Principle campaigns
- ✅ Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) advocacy
- ✅ NESREA Green Corps community registration drives
- ✅ Policy dialogues with government and industry
- ✅ Legal empowerment on constitutional environmental rights
