PAKPRO strikes deal with Kenya Scouts Association to advance environmental education

PAKPRO and the Kenya Scouts Association (KSA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to advance environmental education and sustainable waste management among young people and schools in Kenya. The partnership marks the launch of the Tuwezeshe program, PAKPRO's environmental education initiative, aimed at equipping young people with knowledge and practical tools for responsible waste management.

Through the partnership, PAKPRO and KSA will leverage the Scouts' extensive youth network to promote environmental stewardship in schools and communities. The Tuwezeshe program includes Adopt-a-Bin, PAKPRO's packaging recovery initiative, which will provide segregated collection points for recyclable materials in schools. Additionally, the program will undertake a quarterly take-back program focused on paper and cartons commonly generated through school activities.

The Kenya Scouts Association will play a crucial role in mobilizing young people and supporting environmental activities within schools and communities.
