About
We collect plastic waste and turn it into useful Materials for educational, infrastructure, and art purposes. We also teach people how to do it. This makes our streets clean and create job opportunities for young Africans
Impact
ReForm redefines the possibilities of plastic waste by transforming discarded materials into open resources for art, education, manufacturing, and technology. This is our way of changing Africa's mindset about waste management
Progress
We have designed the ReForm model, identified plastic collection partners in Yobe, and prototyped products like phone holders and eco-bricks. We are ready to build our first processing hub and train our first team of 10 youth.
Team
I live in the community facing this plastic problem. I have local partners in schools and recycling centres. I am passionate about climate action and youth empowerment, and committed to building open solutions that anyone can copy.
