The participants were taught how to properly manage their household waste and encouraged to practice eco-friendly habits. Through this training, the beneficiaries are expected to contribute to the preservation of the environment while also improving their economic status.

This includes strengthening partnerships at the local level to lobby for services that help achieve this goal.

The training was conducted in partnership with local government units and non-government organizations to ensure the sustainability of the program.
