Litter was an important issue in North Efate (Vanuatu) as people disposed of plastics and other non-degradable waste the same way they used to do it with natural rubbish. RESCCUE supported local communities through the Tasi Vanua and Nguna Pele Environment Networks to raise population awareness, establish selective waste sorting and organize waste collection in partnership with the Port Vila municipality.
