• Equip participants with a comprehensive understanding of various art forms, encompassing both traditional and digital arts, to facilitate effective communication of environmental messages.
• Empower participants with essential skills to leverage digital art and social media effectively, enabling them and local artists to amplify environmental messages, engage a broader audience, and inspire local action.
• Equip participants with necessary knowledge to conduct workshops on art as a dual-purpose tool—raising awareness about environmental issues and exploring recycling as a solution to these.

The social media campaigns should consist of a minimum of three thoughtfully crafted posts on at least two social media platforms. The workshops aim to disseminate information on environmental issues, showcasing art as a powerful tool for raising awareness and highlighting its potential as a recycling solution.
