ZERO WASTE ADVOCACY PROJECT
LOOB aims to elevate the awareness of youth and communities about proper solid waste management. Now, in its third year of implementation, ZWAP continues to change perspectives with the leadership of ZWAP Youth Leaders from Calahunan, Navais, and Namocon communities.
The Zero Waste Advocacy Project (ZWAP), with the theme "Strengthening the Ability of Youth Leaders in the Community Towards a Zero Waste Society", is a project started by NGO LOOB last 2022. Since its inception, the program has already conducted workshops in 15 public and private schools.
Through this project, the Filipino Youth will be empowered and capacitated to advocate for the environment and contribute to elevating awareness and knowledge regarding the solid waste problem. The project also aims to enhance environmental awareness among citizens through school seminars and help support and empower waste recyclers in the Calahunan Sanitary Landfill.
