Key Focus Areas

i

Environmental Education and Advocacy

GreenAd is committed to raising awareness, driving behavioral change, and influencing policies for a greener future. Through public education campaigns, community engagement, and policy advocacy, we empower individuals and institutions to adopt environmentally sustainable practices. Our initiatives include the expansion of Green Clubs in schools, policy recommendations, and collaborative programs that promote environmental stewardshi

Waste Management & Circular Economy

We advocate for a circular approach to waste management by promoting sustainable resource use and responsible disposal practices. Our work focuses on e-waste recycling, incentivizing informal waste collectors, and scaling up responsible recycling models. Through research, policy engagement, and training programs, we contribute to the development of a more sustainable waste management system across West Africa.

Pollution Management and Control

GreenAd works to mitigate environmental pollution through research, public awareness, and intervention strategies. Our initiatives address hazardous waste, mercury and lead contamination, and pollution hotspots in affected communities. We engage in evidence-based advocacy, develop site-specific interventions, and conduct awareness campaigns to minimize pollution and its harmful effects on public health and the environment

Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH)

Ensuring access to clean water and improved sanitation is a key part of our mission. GreenAd leads community-based projects to enhance sanitation practices, reduce water contamination, and promote hygiene education. Our work builds on successful projects such as the RECIRCULATE initiatives, which focus on circular water economies.
