TAK Participates in World Clean Up Day

The Tourism Authority of Kiribati participated in a world and International Coastal clean-up day on Friday 18 September 2020. The clean-up, led by the Ministry of Environment, Land and Agricultural Development was a half-day program at Taiwan Park, Betio.

The world clean-up day is celebrated annually around the world and by participating, TAK highlighted the need for Kiribati to be vigilant in its commitment to strengthen the implementation of solid waste management policies currently in place.

TAK took the opportunity by cleaning up and picking up non-degradable wastes at Takoronga Point, where the Japanese WWII relics remain. Other ministries and sector cleaned up at their designated area.

TAK was pleased to have participated in this clean-up event and looking forward to any future event like this one.
