To successfully deliver this project, Henkel Nigeria partnered with GWETO NGO and the Waste Museum to impact the lives of 100 primary school children in Ibadan, Oyo state.
The children were taught to create arts and crafts using recyclable items, fostering creativity while instilling a sense of environmental consciousness.
