 By Our Staff Writer Dar es Salaam residents have been challenged to creatively recycle trash materials and convert them into new materials or products of higher value and quality - which would lead to economic empowerment while giving waste materials a new purpose and most importantly avoiding adding them to landfill.

 Sarah Scott, the CEO of Archipelago Productions, organizers of the Msasani Beach Clean Up and Anza Up-cycle Fiesta which took place at Msasani Beach in Dar es Salaam over the weekend said during the event that waste products can be turned into treasure and people can make money from it while keeping the environment clean at the same time. Scott, who has been instrumental in the cleanup of the Msasani beachfront, says there is a lot of trash on this beach that can’t be reused but there are a lot of objects in the streets that can be reused.
