The SKYLINE NGO is working closely with the Municipality of the Commune Urbaine d’Antsirabe. Consequently, the two entities are implementing many development projects including this waste management project.
Environmental protection is one of the central concerns of the NGO. The Waste Management Project is committed to smartly manage the waste of the city of Antsirabe. Specifically, it aims at placing garbage bins in each neighborhood. The time and the day of deposit of the waste will be fixed, then a truck belonging to the project will collect this waste which will be transformed into compost.
As results, we are hoping :
1- The reduction of the pollution generated by the dumps
2- The improvement of the living conditions of families living in Antsirabe
3- The sustainable management of waste in the city of Antsirabe
4- The change in the behavior of the population towards the environment improved by the beginning of the project implementation
