The MTNF Project Cleaning the Local Environment Around Nigeria (C.L.E.A.N) was a waste-to-wealth environmental health initiative designed to improve cleanliness and sanitation within urban areas. As populations grow, so too does the volume of waste generated, posing significant challenges for communities nationwide. This project therefore established a waste disposal and management system at 2 major markets in the country. To improve sanitation further, safe water supply and public conveniences were provided.
