We at FCP believe that at the core of every positive change, evolution and growth is awareness. We have recognized that one of the major causes of pollution is a lack of awareness among people regarding the causes and effects of pollution, and their role in both contributing to and improving it. We, as sensible citizens can do both.
So, FCP through campaigns and knowledge sharing through Information, Education and Communication, hold awareness campaigns and drives in various parts of the country. We do this with varied audiences keeping in mind their backgrounds, work, and the state of pollution. We share with them the bigger climatic picture and how we being part of the system can make it better.
FCP created awareness for plastic waste management, single-use plastic, and electronic waste management among the residents of RWA society, Market areas People, and Waste workers who directly engage in the segregation, collection, and disposal and Sanitation staff of Municipal Corporation of more than 16 states. For awareness creation, different campaigns were designed by FCP, namely:
