About Us

The impetus behind the ReCrearte Program arose from the interest sparked among students who participated in the Recycled Art Workshop conducted by Bertha Santana at the II DREFF in 2012. The ReCrearte Program aims to raise awareness of the 3Rs of solid waste management: reduce, reuse, recycle. The workshops also emphasize and demonstrate how recycling waste into art can empower individuals and communities alike.

Through this brand new program, GFDD hopes to engage youth groups, educators and women's associations into reformulating the way they think about trash and raise awareness of the plastic pollution problem.
