Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>Siffoe-based youth organisation, Gambia Rural Poor Association (GAMRUPA), in partnership with Een Hart Voor Siffoe and Young People Without Borders (YPWB) last week launched a new plastic recycling project at the YPWB education center in Siffoe.<\/p>\n

The partners also distributed furniture and uniforms to schools and presented certificates to staff of Hope Center Nursery School in Siffoe who participated in Jolly Phonics training.<\/p>\n

The plastic recycling project in the community of Siffoe is the brainchild of Young People without Borders (YPWB), who constructed the first plastic and bottle made house in The Gambia in 2012. The single-room house is now being used as the organisation\u2019s resource centre.<\/p>\n

Lamin Camara, chairman of Gambia Rural Poor Association (GAMRUPA) said environmental sanitation is a concern to them, saying the plastic recycling project will commence early next year with sensitization of communities on the importance of recycling and its positive impact on the environment.<\/p>\n

Kalifa Kanteh, chairman of Young People without Borders (YPWB) said the project will make the best use of waste plastics by recycling them into useful materials and address the environmental hazards.<\/p>\n

Mr Kanteh thanked Gambia Rural Poor Association (GAMRUPA) Europe and Een Hart Voor Siffoe who are providing immense support to Gambian schools and health facilities.<\/p>\n

Henk and Anthonela, representative from GAMRUPA Europe emphasized the importance of the project, saying apart from keeping the environment clean, they also expect it to provide engagement opportunity for young people of Siffoe.<\/p>\n

Alagie Manding Camara, headmaster of Hope Center Nursery School commended Een Hart Voor Siffoe for funding the Jolly Phonics training for staff of the school.<\/p>\n

Amadou Tambedou, principal education officer at region two education office thanked Gambia Rural Poor Association (GAMRUPA), Een Hart Voor Siffoe and Young People Without Borders (YPWB) for their efforts in supporting schools and for coming up with the plastic recycling project.<\/p>\n
