The Environmental Program

The Environmental Program of BLESS is dedicated to improving the living conditions and local environment of targeted communities. The Program is primarily concerned with reducing levels of pollution and waste, therefore reducing rates of disease and other medical problems. It also aims to develop sustainable resource management skills and healthy sewage disposal.
