General information
TrashBackâs Uphinda Phindo! allows community members to have the opportunity to translate rubbish into rewards, simply by bringing items which were previously considered to be worthless. The potential benefits of this are threefold: 1. more waste will be recycled and thus directed away from landfills. 2. cleaner communities will result, instilling pride and dignity and a greater sense of place. 3. the project can provide both informal and formal employment, contributing to local social upliftment. At the core of the TrashBack initiative lies our incentivised recycling project: uphinda-phindo! which uses a unique voucher system enabled by the Broccoli Project. Participants from IY bring in recyclable materials and are rewarded with vouchers for their efforts. The vouchers can be redeemed at local community stores and ensure that: 1. Participants are rewarded with beneficial items, such as food and clothing. 2. Rewards are kept within the community, helping to stimulate the local economy.
