Brief Innovation

By managing waste from sources discharged into the Mekong River in the territory of Can Tho, this project will build and promote a pilot model of a circular economy in Vietnam, reduce waste from rivers into the sea and create behavioral change in waste management for local communities living on the river. In this project, we focus on reshaping waste come to be resources, promoting the collection, classification, reuse and recycling of waste. This will maximize the product's life and minimize the negative impact of waste to the environment.
