【從環境教育到政策行動｜攜手打造更永續的聖克里斯多福和尼維斯】
♻️ 塑膠瓶、鋁罐和紙板，回收後會去哪裡？一座島嶼又該如何做好垃圾管理？🌱
國合會駐聖克里斯多福及尼維斯技術團透過「固體廢棄物處理及循環利用計畫」，結合臺灣青年參訪與固體廢棄物管理策略工作坊，和大家一起從生活中的回收，聊到島國未來的環境管理🌏
👩🎓 跟著青年走進回收現場
來自臺灣的青年走進聖克里斯多福的固體廢棄物掩埋場，透過有趣的分類遊戲，帶大家分辨塑膠瓶、鋁罐和紙板，也示範回收物如何壓縮、打包，再裝運出口📦🚢
大家還看到了回收材料製成的衣服與可重複使用的購物袋👕🛍️ 透過現場參訪，回收的過程更容易理解，也讓臺灣與聖克里斯多福和尼維斯的交流多了一份共同關心環境的連結。
🏛️ 一起討論更適合島國的垃圾管理方式
技術團與聖克里斯多福和尼維斯固體廢棄物管理局共同舉辦「固體廢棄物管理策略工作坊」，邀集政府單位、廢棄物管理機構、環境衛生代表及顧問團隊，一起檢視現況、交換意見💬
🔍 改善日常運作：從垃圾量、回收成效，到掩埋場與回收設施的運作，找出可以改善的地方，討論如何讓作業流程更一致、資料更完整、品質檢查及工作安全更到位。
🗺️ 規劃未來方向：從源頭分類、兩島資料整合、回收市場及經費安排，研擬符合當地的人口規模、財政條件及人力資源的短、中、長期推動策略。
🤝 從每一次分類開始
青年參訪讓更多人認識回收，工作坊則讓各單位一起思考下一步。技術團將持續透過知識分享與技術合作，支持當地改善回收、減量及資源再利用🌿
政府、社區、青年和企業都能一起參與。從每一次分類、每一項改善開始，為下一代留下更乾淨、更永續的聖克里斯多福和尼維斯💚

【From Environmental Education to Policy Action｜Working Together for a More Sustainable St. Kitts and Nevis】
♻️ Where do plastic bottles, aluminium cans and cardboard go after we recycle them? And how can an island improve the way it manages waste? 🌱
Through a visit by young people from Taiwan and a Solid Waste Management Strategy Workshop, the Taiwan Technical Mission in St. Kitts and Nevis’solid waste management and recycling project brought people together to explore everyday recycling and the future of waste management in St. Kitts and Nevis. 🌏
👩🎓 Seeing recycling up close
Young visitors from Taiwan toured the solid waste landfill in St. Kitts to learn about local recycling. The project team used a fun sorting game to introduce plastic bottles, aluminium cans and cardboard, then demonstrated how recyclables are compressed, baled and prepared for shipment overseas. 📦🚢
The visitors also saw clothing and reusable shopping bags made from recycled materials. 👕🛍️ Seeing the process up close made recycling easier to understand and gave the visitors and their hosts another way to connect through a shared interest in the environment.
🏛️ Planning waste management that works for the islands
The Taiwan Mission and the Solid Waste Management Authority in St. Kitts and Nevis jointly hosted the workshop. Government agencies, waste management organizations, environmental health representatives and consultants reviewed current conditions and shared ideas. 💬
🔍 Improving daily operations: Participants reviewed waste volumes, recycling performance, landfill management and recycling facilities, discussing more consistent procedures, better records, quality checks and workplace safety.
🗺️ Planning the next steps: Discussions covered sorting waste at source, bringing data from both islands together, recycling markets and funding arrangements, with priorities for the short, medium and long term.
The approach needs to suit the islands’ population, finances and available staff. Starting with improvements to existing operations can help build a waste management system that works locally and can be sustained over time. 📊
🤝 Starting with everyday action
The youth visit helped more people understand recycling, while the workshop gave partner organizations a chance to plan together. Through knowledge sharing and technical cooperation, the Mission will continue supporting recycling, waste reduction and resource recovery. 🌿
Government, communities, young people and businesses all have a part to play. Each sorting effort and practical improvement can help leave a cleaner, more sustainable St. Kitts and Nevis for the next generation. 💚
