Gate Charity, in partnership with Rumah Kreatif Pemuda Siginjai (RKPS) Jambi, recently completed a community program aimed at improving the quality of life for waste pickers in Kampung Pemulung, Jambi, Indonesia. Waste management has been a growing issue in Indonesia’s urban areas, with the waste pickers of Kampung Pemulung among the most affected, facing challenges related to education, health, and social stigma.

RKPS Jambi, an organization driven by young individuals passionate about social change, initiated this project to empower the Kampung Pemulung community. The program provided non-formal education for children of waste pickers and skills training for adults. In addition to educational support, it addressed health needs by organizing check-ups, promoting cleanliness, and educating the community on health practices.

Environmental awareness was another key aspect of the initiative. By teaching proper waste management practices and encouraging recycling activities, the program aimed to foster a more sustainable environment. Economic empowerment was also at the core of this project, as it involved marketing recycled products made by waste pickers and offering entrepreneurship training to help improve their economic welfare.
