Join us in raising awareness about Zero Waste practices in Qatar! With the country generating over 7,156 tons of solid waste daily, it's crucial to adopt sustainable practices. Our agenda focuses on educating students and the community through workshops, projects, and collaboration with organizations like QGBC. We aim to achieve a 38% recycling rate and foster a culture of responsibility and respect for our environment. Through effective waste sorting and green building guidelines, we can build a healthier future for generations to come.
