Madiba & Nature was funded to help preserve the livelihoods of fishermen while addressing the issue of marine plastic pollution. Plastic waste are collected through beach clean-up activities and used to create its Ecoboats for fishermen. Its strategy is about to expand the use of its Ecobins by installing the first innovative system of waste management on beaches. With around 150 Ecobins, up to 5 tonnes of plastic waste has been collected each month that allowed building 46 Ecoboats used for fishing and ecotourism. The ecotourism created 10 jobs within the Londji community. Seven youths have been trained on entrepreneurship in green business.
