Zoomlion Ghana Limited has sponsored some 18 beneficiaries in the Waste and Sanitation Module under the Youth Employment Agency (YEA), on a 21-day journey of discovery in Europe.

This unique opportunity will allow them to explore and learn about effective sanitation and waste management practices in Belarus and Russia, paving the way for their personal and professional growth.

The first of its kind, the trip aims to expose street sweepers to innovative approaches to sanitation, such as Effective deployment of workers and sanitary tools and sweeping methods. This is a follow-up to a previous trip by company executives who observed waste management practices and identified potential areas for adaptation and implementation.

The trip’s objectives are not just about learning and implementing new practices.

They also include a crucial element of collaboration.

The Compan aims to work together with its international counterparts to identify potential waste management opportunities and areas for adaptation and implementation, including street-sweeping initiatives.

This collaborative approach ensures that we are all part of the solution.

Announcing the trip, Zoomlion’s Managing Director, Mrs. Gloria Opoku Anti, explained that this exposure trip marks a significant milestone in the company’s efforts to empower street sweepers and enhance sanitation practices.
