In Nigeria, it’s estimated that at 0.51 kilogrammes of waste generated daily by each Nigerian, and it is forecasted to rise to 107 million tonnes by 2050 – a development that presents both a threat and an opportunity. While 98 million people, in the country live in multidimensional poverty, struggle to live on less than $1.90 daily, which is not enough to meet their most basic needs, especially health care.
The World Bank’s estimates of over 60% of Nigerians living below the poverty line indicate that a significant portion of the Nigerian public cannot access quality health service due to the concomitant high costs.
Envisionwaste2health is a social initiative that helps extremely low income people, in Nigeria afford a better health care, by exchanging all their wastes for reliable access decent healthcare services.
