Eco-Hut

Importance of Eco-Bricks This initiative promotes educating people (more importantly youth) to take

responsibility for their plastic use and ensures plastic reduction in land fills and

oceans. Moreover the Eco-Hut will be used as education centre where youth can

study, develop skills and potentially host-events (i.e. art exhibitions).
