At SAMFORTUNA FOUNDATION, we view waste not as a problem—but as a resource with untapped potential. Our waste management and circular economy initiatives are designed to reduce environmental pollution while creating dignified livelihood opportunities for marginalized communities.
We implement community-led models of waste segregation, composting, recycling, and upcycling to close the loop on resource use. By promoting behavioral change and building local systems, we foster cleaner, healthier, and more resilient communities.
Our Key Interventions:
Community Waste Segregation Programs Training households, schools, and businesses on how to separate biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste at source.
Decentralized Composting & Biogas Setting up compost units and small-scale biogas systems to manage organic waste locally and produce clean energy or fertilizer.
Recycling & Upcycling Initiatives Partnering with artisans, entrepreneurs, and waste workers to turn plastic, textile, and electronic waste into useful products and crafts.
Livelihood Creation through Green Jobs Supporting informal waste workers, especially women and youth, with tools, training, and formal recognition to improve income and dignity.
Awareness & Behavior Change Campaigns Educating communities about the environmental and economic benefits of circular practices through workshops, events, and school programs.
Zero-Waste Pilots Launching pilot programs in urban and rural areas to demonstrate scalable zero-waste solutions with measurable impact.
