Waste Management
During the 2014 Sustainability and Innovation Camp in Kabala, Project 1808 began a community clean up initiative to collect waste littering the ground. The event quickly caught on in the community and became a monthly event fully organized by community members. As Kabala, like much of Sierra Leone, does not have an organized waste management system, we have sparked a grass-roots effort striving for a cleaner, healthier community and environment.

At both the 2016 and 2017 Science and Leadership Festival, we included activities and experiments focused on climate science in order to develop a thorough understanding of climate change, green house gasses, and the environmental impact of human activities.
