Solid Waste has become one of the biggest challenges in the urban areas. With the increased population and change in the consumption pattern, the generation of solid waste has been increasing day by day in Kathmandu valley. But due to the inefficient resources, there has been a huge problem with the management of the solid waste. The solid wastes are haphazardly dumped in the roads and rivers which has added fuel to increase the pollution in the city. Therefore, it is a high time to address the problem of solid waste from the individual level.
In order to address the issue of Solid Waste Management, I would like to implement the concept of “Trash Art” in various schools of Kathmandu Valley. The theme of the trash art will be “Everything is a Resource if we know how to use it”. In today’s context, students are basically taught about 3R concept in their school curriculum. However, they’re not taught on how to practically implement those ideas which has limited the knowledge only in theories. So, this project will be basically focused onto aware students regarding solid waste and our responsibilities for its management. The project will be using “Trash” such as paper, rubber tube, cans, bottles etc. as its “Resource” to form various decorative items, jewelleries and gift items.
The main objectives of the “Trash Art” are:
- To explore the creativity of the students in creating best out of waste
- To generate “Cash out of Trash”
- To teach students on the creative and practical solutions to the burning problem of solid waste management

ReplyDeleteWow great initiation! I am also part of your campaign! I know some devotees in 3R,Mr Bijay Prajapati and Mr. Raju Khadaka, who can be a great help, , for this project. Guess you know them. If not let me know:)
ReplyDelete'cash out of trash'= 'best out of waste'
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Anjani ! I also feel that young students are the best target group to initiate such activities because they are the future of nation. If they are taught in young than surely the future Nepal will be more clean. I think it would be better to develop thrash arts and educational equipments that can be use in the schools and class rooms. Students can create arts and display them in the classrooms or they can demonstrate in the school exhibition day where parents and other people can see and appreciate their arts. Similarly it would also be appreciable to teach teacher to develop educational and teaching maters from thrash.
ReplyDeleteKeep it up
