Together against rubbish in Tentaguazu
31.10.2022
Unfortunately, plastic waste also reaches the dry Chaco in the south of Bolivia. In September, the pupils from Tentaguazu therefore flocked out to collect the plastic waste that had accumulated around the village. This initiative was initiated by the teachers of the middle school in order to sensitise the children and young people to the problem of waste. We, the Fundación Pueblo, donated an extra afternoon snack in the form of fruit for the diligent litter pickers after their work was done. In addition, during each of the frequent project visits, we take a pick-up load full of plastic waste to the departmental capital Tarija, where the waste is delivered to a specialised collection point.
