Millennium Fellowship Project: Keep Gulu City Clean Project
The project based at Gulu Main Market is an ongoing community sanitation and environmental awareness initiative aimed at promoting cleanliness, public health, and responsible waste management among market vendors and community members. As part of this project, we organized a market-wide cleaning exercise involving sweeping, garbage collection, sanitation sensitization, and proper waste disposal practices.
The project seeks to create a cleaner, safer, and healthier marketplace by engaging youth volunteers, vendors, and local leaders in environmental stewardship. In addition to the physical cleaning, we conducted short awareness sessions on hygiene, disease prevention, waste segregation, and the importance of maintaining clean public spaces. This initiative strengthens community ownership, supports public health, and contributes to Sustainable Development Goals, especially SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being) and SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation).
