A total of 146 volunteers, including students, invited guests, and Green Brunei committee members, collected over 1,300 kg of waste in designated zones. This initiative supports Brunei’s National Climate Change Policy and the European Green Deal, promoting youth awareness and climate action through hands-on participation.
