Association for the Protection of the Environment
Overview
A.P.E. is a non-profit organisation based in Cairo, Egypt. A.P.E. works with the Zabbaleen community (garbage collectors) to improve their circumstances, promoting a 'recycle and reuse' ethos. This is done by promoting the development of sound waste management and by introducing innovative recycling techniques. A.P.E.'s mission is to promote environmentally safe solid waste management in Egypt through empowering garbage collectors, particularly women, youth, and children, to become technologically able to manage a viable system of household waste, including recycling. Through comprehensive development, including health, education, social, economic and cultural programs, garbage collectors become agents of change for a better environment.
