Proof that you’re never too young to protect our planet! 🌍

Some of the students from Banjul American International School visited us recently, proving that big changes start with small hands.

They brought in collected plastic bottle caps, and we walked them through the entire recycling journey. From sorting and shredding to processing, they watched their waste transform into brand-new recycled rulers! 📏✨

Teaching kids about the circular economy early on changes how they see the world forever. Thank you to these amazing students for taking action!

Yesterday, we were delighted to host 8 brilliant students and 2 teachers from Fojanga Academy Nursery & Lower Basic School at the Precious Plastic Gambia Recycling Center.

The visit combined both theory and practical learning, giving students the opportunity to explore plastic recycling firsthand. They learned about waste management, operated the shredder and injection machine under supervision, and even created their own recycled plastic rulers.

Their curiosity, enthusiasm, and commitment to protecting the environment were truly inspiring. We look forward to welcoming them again as we continue empowering young minds to become champions for a cleaner, greener Gambia.

Today, we were delighted to welcome Level 2 students from SBEC International Lower Basic School to Precious Plastic Gambia for an engaging learning visit. The students showed great curiosity and enthusiasm, asking thoughtful questions about plastic waste, recycling, and how everyday actions can help protect our environment. It was inspiring to see young minds eager to learn about sustainability and the circular economy. We believe environmental education is key to creating a cleaner and greener future, and we are proud to play a role in that journey. Thank you, SBEC International, for visiting us today..... looking forward to more of such engagements.

Earth Day 2026: Collaboration in Action 🌍✨

Our mission for Earth Day wasn’t just about the cleanup; it was about fostering lasting change through education. We believe that a cleaner future starts with understanding the value of what we throw away.

This week, we led comprehensive training sessions focused on Plastic Segregation, working directly with:

Rangers at : Equipping them with the technical knowledge to manage waste within protected wildlife habitats.

The Gunjur Community: Engaging local members on how to properly sort and prepare plastic for the recycling pipeline.

By teaching the community how to bridge the gap between "litter" and "recyclable material," we are combating the burning, burying, and mismanagement of waste while improving the health and livelihoods of our people.

We were also proud to host two hours of dedicated education sessions for 36 students from Gunjur Kajabang, and Madina Salam through the study class, empowering the next generation of environmental stewards.

Following the training, volunteers put their skills to the test, clearing plastic waste from the Abuko Nature Reserve and the Gunjur coastline. Pollution remains a critical threat to our wildlife, and through these vital collaborations, we remain committed to protecting The Gambia’s biodiversity.

A huge thanks to our partners for coming together to honour this important milestone:
