Salvador, BA raises public awareness of littering by turning hotspots into green spaces
Salvador, BA Littering Hotspots Awareness Green Spaces
In Progress
City-owned Limpurb identifies littering hotspots based on resident complaints and field observations. Local volunteers clean each location and plant seeds to turn the hotspot into a green space. Limpurb adds signage near the converted space about the program as well as local littering regulations. This initiative addresses pest infestations, blighted lots, and shortages of green spaces throughout Salvador.
Project Succeeded
Limpurb and community volunteers opened 98 green spaces during the program's first 15 months.
