On the first day of March, Ismaili CIVIC volunteers in Australia came together with the aim to make a positive impact on the local environment, in particular, picking up litter to reduce the amount of waste present in parks, beaches, waterways, bushlands, and roadways. With 2.5 million tonnes of waste recorded across Australia each year, every effort to remove and recycle rubbish makes a sizable difference in keeping our environment protected and looking beautiful.

Clean Up Australia Day is the country’s largest community-centred environmental event, held on the first Sunday of March every year. The organisation’s mission is simple: to inspire and empower communities to clean up, fix up, and conserve our environment and is designed to encourage people of all ages to do their part to keep our natural surroundings clean and reduce the amount of waste.
