Impact on Underrepresented Groups:

Eco Sachets empowers underrepresented groups, particularly youth, by providing a platform for young innovators to drive sustainable change. As co-founders in our early 20s, Hamisi and I represent the next generation of environmental leaders. We aim to inspire other young people to take action on climate change by showing that youth can create impactful solutions in sustainability, even from a grassroots level.

Our organization is committed to fostering diversity and inclusion, both within our team and in the communities we serve. We actively engage youth in education and outreach programs, encouraging them to become ambassadors for sustainable waste management and environmental protection. By prioritizing collaboration with youth-led organizations and schools, we aim to provide mentorship, skills training, and opportunities to the next generation of environmental changemakers.

Additionally, Eco Sachets targets climate-vulnerable communities that are often disproportionately affected by food waste and environmental degradation. By offering an affordable and effective solution for methane reduction, we hope to empower these communities to take control of their environmental impact and contribute to global sustainability efforts. Through our work, we ensure that underrepresented voices are not only heard but are integral to the solutions we provide.
