Results of Cleaning Campaign at Casco Viejo
Panama Casco Viejo
To educate takes time, specially if it involves changing habits! However challenging, the best way to go about it is with fun stuff. For a bit more than a week, volunteers from Generation Peace Academy (USA) and AVACA had been leading an educational campaign to raise awareness about garbage. They`ve painted tanks and murals with children at school, cleaned streets, talked to neighbors one on one, and patrolled with kids from APROJUSAN every afternoon, each day with a different message ranging from individual responsibility to recycling.
Here are some of the most fun photos. The results so far have been amazing. The street behind the Cathedral got a complete makeover, soon will have some lovely plants and it will look “brand new, but 300 year old style”.
We would like to thank everyone that made this project a reality, specially the great energy brought to it by Generation Peace Academy. Thank you guys!!!
