PBJT - What Shifted Across Systems
Rooted in collaboration. Measurable impact across seven key themes.
Waste System Transformation

- Waste dump sites were identified across villages
- Mixed waste was disposed of without systematic segregation
- Meetings were conducted with vendors and households
- A community pledge was initiated towards waste segregation and responsible disposal

- Households are properly segregating milk packets and other plastic waste
- Plastic waste is responsibly disposed of through structured collection systems
- Hair waste from salons is being segregated and sent to farmers for use as organic manure
- Community-level awareness has translated into consistent waste management practices
