Project Plan

Purpose and vision
The aim of the project is to inform the inhabitants in general and specifically the youths about waste sorting for a brighter future. Through physical meetings and cultural exchanges can we understand their situation on a higher level and thereby making it easier to inform and help Zanzibar's citizens. The goal is to evoke attention through different activities within as well environment- and culture-area. Hopefully the inhabitants realizes the importance of taking care of your waste and especially hazardous waste, and consequently taking better care of their world heritage town.

Background

Tanzania, Zanzibar is a small group of islands located on the east coast of Tanzania. The inhabitants don't have a waste sorting system, therefore litter, garbage and hazardous waste as batteries, are thrown everywhere.

For 5 years have students from Christopher Polhemgymnasiet on Gotland visited the world heritage city Stone Town on Zanzibar to teach and inform the inhabitants about waste sorting, and thus improving their environmentally awareness. The goal of the projects have been to increase the native inhabitants interest for keeping and protecting their world heritage city, which has similarities with Gotlands own world heritage city Visby.

Three days to go.

Now the time is approaching. Soon we are off to carry out our project for informing about waste sorting systems in Zanzibar, Tanzania.

This blog will be your window into our trip and we'll try to update it as often as we can during this incredible adventure with comments, pictures and movies.

We hope this has caught your interest and that it will be able to give you an insight into our project.

With kindest regards
The Project Zanzibar Group
