We got a lot of education about waste, then we had a big sharation in our school. We got a lot of feedback to fix before spreading it more to others place. After all the research, experience, trips, finally we started spreading it to government schools in Kampong Spue province, Cambodia. We hope that we will going on the trip to others province about this innovation.
