1 in 3 people globally do not have a waste management service and have no option but to burn or dump their waste, much of it ending up in the oceans. We share waste management and recycling skills that help people to help themselves from poverty, improve public health, and protect the environment

Story

Join us in our mission to combat global packaging waste and support communities worldwide.

On June 12th - 13th, a dedicated team of 25 individuals from Ecosurety will embark on our annual Walking Challenge in support of WasteAid. This gruelling hiking expedition spans 50km of all types of terrain.

As a proud B Corp committed to making a positive impact, Ecosurety are excited to collaborate with WasteAid, supporting communities on the frontline of the waste crisis to recover the value in waste that would otherwise be dumped or burnt.

WasteAid is international development charity committed to tackling the global waste crisis. Since 2021 WasteAid has implemented 43 projects in 11 countries, positively impacting over 1.35 million people by helping communities recover value from waste, building successful local waste businesses, and protecting the environment.

The urgency of waste management has never been greater—one in three people worldwide lack access to waste disposal services, leaving them no choice but to dump or burn waste. This has catastrophic impacts on human health with 9 million people dying every year from diseases linked to mismanagement of waste and pollutants. WasteAid is dedicated to empowering individuals and communities to harness the potential of waste, turning it into a resource to alleviate poverty and foster a cleaner, healthier environment for all.
