Programs & Activities
Program 1
$158KWe organize citizen scientists to perform weekly beach monitoring reports, tracking textile tentacles across a seven kilometer swath of Accra's beaches. Building on these findings we conduct weekly water and air sampling analysis along with regular passive air pollution monitoring in order to track the flow of waste pollution across the coastal environment. Through our first-of-its-kind solar powered research vessel, we will soon expand this monitoring and mapping effort off of the coastline and into the Gulf of Guinea.
Program 2
$3.0MWe operate a paid apprenticeship program for young women leaving the dangerous job of head carrying secondhand clothing, which includes healthcare and education. We provide emergency relief for members of the secondhand clothing market in Ghana who encounter crisis. We install and maintain fire extinguishers across the market and operate long-range business transformation classes to bolster financial literacy skills. In addition we conduct weekly beach cleanups and perform material research and development to transform waste into new products and economic livelihoods.
