Leading Climate Action
Building Clean, Green & Resilient Communities
Driving sustainability through waste management, climate action, and climate smart-agriculture. Empowering youth, farmers, and communities across Malawi and beyond.
Creating Sustainable Change Through Innovation
Clean Cities Project is a youth-driven climate and environmental innovation organization working to accelerate climate action and sustainable waste management in Malawi and the Global South. Through creative solutions like Waste to Art, briquettes for energy transition, and grassroots climate resilience initiatives, we empower young people, schools, communities, and artists to build cleaner, greener, and more climate-resilient communities.
