General description
The city of Bafoussam is making a call to the diaspora to support and strengthen its 'Plastic-free Bafoussam' program. This initiative aims to improve urban sanitation and reduce plastic pollution by raising the population's awareness of reducing the use of single-use plastic. Faced with still-limited solid waste management and insufficient infrastructure, the program seeks to strengthen its logistical, financial, and technical resources. The goal is to effectively combat the accumulation of garbage, prevent environmental and health risks, and promote a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable city.
Impacts / Objectives
1. **Urban sanitation and reduction of plastic pollution:** Significant decrease in the accumulation of plastic waste in the streets, waterways, and public spaces.
2. **Strengthening of waste management infrastructure:** Contribution to the setting up and equipping of sorting, recycling, and plastic recovery centers.
3. **Behavior change and increased awareness:** Increase in citizen participation and adoption of ecological practices by households, markets, and businesses.
4. **Improvement of public health and the environment:** Reduction of the risks of diseases linked to unsanitary conditions and the creation of a healthier living environment for the inhabitants of Bafoussam.
Contribution details
The diaspora is invited to contribute to the strengthening of the 'Plastic-free Bafoussam' program through donations that will make it possible to:
* **Finance the acquisition of equipment:** Purchase of selective collection bins, collection vehicles, and protective equipment for agents.
* **Support infrastructure:** Participation in the construction, equipping (sorting machines, presses), and maintenance of waste treatment centers.
* **Support awareness-raising:** Funding of communication campaigns, educational workshops in schools, and field actions.
* **Provide technical expertise:** Funding of consultants or specialists in waste management for innovative and sustainable solutions.
Mission conditions
Participation can take different forms, adapted to the availability and resources of each member of the diaspora. Direct financial contributions are preferred for the purchase of equipment and the financing of infrastructure.
