BAHKAP System - An evolving concept. As we continue our effort to instill the discipline associated in solid waste management in a manner that is in accord with the best principles in public health, economics, engineering, conservation, aesthetics, and other environmental considerations – the Municipality of Bantayan have set its mandate toward institutionalizing the BAHKAP System. BAHKAP was adopted by the local government unit of Bantayan in 2020. It was introduced as Trash for Health (T4H) program by Zoological Society of London-Philippines – a conservation organization in cooperation with the Development Consulting Group, Inc. (DCGI). T4H is a multi-stakeholder collaborative program that engages selected barangays, and other stakeholders to improve community support for the ecological solid waste management through innovative incentive schemes. Piloted in eight (8) barangays that resulted to the identification of emerging opportunities not only to the establishment a stronger partnership and linkages but also the discovery of skills and talents of Bantayanons in the field of arts and design. And most of all, the contribution of T4H activities in the reduction of plastics waste discarded and drifted into the ocean. |
