NLWA | New waste prevention education initiative in schools

26 February 2024 Members' News

NLWA is launching "In The Know" programme, a new initiative focusing on waste prevention education. The programme is set to kick off in September 2024, spanning the entire academic year, with a focus on primary schools across north London. The comprehensive programme aims to engage all members of the school community through a series of activities and educational sessions designed to promote waste prevention and enhance recycling efforts.

Participating schools can expect at least three days of in-person engagement from NLWA, teacher-developed and curriculum-linked materials, improved internal communications on waste and recycling practices, better waste and recycling infrastructure and services and long-term planning to help each school commit to further waste prevention.
