Community sanitation
Clean-up activities bring residents, young people and local stakeholders together around healthier environments.
OUR PROGRAMMES / PROJECT REFRESH
Project ReFresh helps communities reduce waste, protect natural resources and turn environmental awareness into everyday action.

Environmental responsibility connects health, community spaces, household choices and the way development programmes are delivered. ReFresh promotes practical steps that fit local realities.
We work through trusted local relationships—schools, women’s groups, traditional leaders, government institutions and community partners. Participation and sustained follow-up are central to the approach.
Partner on this programmeOUR APPROACH
Clean-up activities bring residents, young people and local stakeholders together around healthier environments.
Education encourages better waste handling, reuse and environmentally responsible choices.
Schools and community activities connect environmental knowledge with practical participation.
RCDI considers materials, packaging, procurement, energy use and waste across its programmes. Cleaner cooking approaches are an area of programme interest; project-specific delivery is reported separately.
Our reports identify completed work and reported results. Planned interventions and future ambitions are kept separate from delivered impact.
