‘‘The EOIC provides a platform for creativity, innovation and problem-solving for young professionals. Climate change and global warming are very pertinent issues to humanity. While we encourage young people in the call to combat the issue, we also need to expose their creative side. This will also assist in sensitizing the public on alternative ways that materials can be recycled. With the EOIC, we continue to contribute our part to achieve the goal of having a sustainable environment.  We have recorded a good level of success with the maiden edition and are proud to be at the fore of this initiative. We look forward to receiving entries from creative young people’’.

According to the World Bank, the world generates 2.01 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste annually, with at least 33 percent of that extremely conservatively not managed in an environmentally safe manner. Global waste is expected to grow to 3.40 billion tonnes by 2050, more than double population growth over the same period.

 

With innovations like EOIC, there is an opportunity to manage and recycle waste effectively to enhance growth. Entries received will go through a rigorous review process by renowned judges who will shortlist and announce a winner.  The inaugural edition of the EOIC had more than 350 entries.  Interested participants can register on www.EOIC.com
