Environmental Awareness

Comexim present from childhood

Comexim is a pioneer in bringing the Clean Field Environmental Education Program (PEA) to the region of Borda da Mata, Inconfidentes, and Bueno Brandao in Minas Gerais. Run by the National Institute for the Processing of Empty

Packaging (InPEV) - an initiative recognized by the United Nations - the program reaches 400 students in the 4th and 5th grades.
Students receive educational kits with interactive activities - games and storytelling - about solid waste and Brazil’s National Solid Waste Policy.

As motivation, the program organizes a writing and drawing contest on the theme Environmental Citizenship.
Inspired by the PEA contest, Comexim also held its own essay and drawing competition with local schools. Students and teachers were awarded laptops for 1st place and tablets for 2nd and 3rd places.
