Waste Management at Bumi Kartini Schools Jepara

Since 2019, we have educated and provided close assistance to ensure waste management is properly implemented in two schools, Sekolah Dasar Unggulan Terpadu Bumi Kartini Jepara, a primary school of 700 students with 60 employees, and Sekolah Menengah Pertama Unggulan Terpadu Bumi Kartini Jepara, a secondary school of 200 boarding school students with 35 employees. All students and employees now throw their waste in the corresponding bins: organics, inorganics, and landfill.

Since June 2023 alone, we have successfully recycled over 800 kg of recyclables and composted more than 1000 kg of organic waste that would have otherwise gone to the nearby landfill.

Waste management will only be successful when all walks of life work together hand in hand for public benefit. Therefore, we ensure our projects are fully understood, not only by the students and teachers but all school members. We have educated 900 students and ~90 employees to ensure the successful implementation of the waste management project.
