Daily Monitor.https://bdears.busitema.ac.ug/handle/123456789/5110Newspaper Article“Inessentials can be turned into essentials,” is the theme you see along the streets of Kisugu, in the go-down railway area. Here, a group of natives known as the “Kasanvu Environmentalists Group,” has conserved the environment for the last 11 years. This team collects trash and turns it into plastic pavers. “In 2006, KCCA entrusted me with this area to work together with natives and ensure proper disposal of garbage. After an environmental sustainability training from Hope for a Child, a non-profitable organisation under the initiative of KCCA, I discovered a way to make plastic pavers out of the rubbish,” recounts Alex Tumulanye, the group chairperson and KCCA worker.enArticle
