Franky's Foundation addresses two key issues in Nairobi, Kenya: electronic waste management and youth and women unemployment. Their 6-week programme trains individuals in e-waste repair, creating green jobs, and tackling climate change by diverting e-waste from landfills and reducing methane emissions. Their e-waste education and training positively impact the environment by teaching repair, refurbishment, and resale of electronics, thus reducing landfill waste and mitigating health risks.
