A brief description of the campaign (1st campaign):
In January 2014, a new Zero Waste initiative was launched - targeting the whole university community. It replaced existing waste bins in public spaces with new, 4-stream Zero Waste Stations, increasing the materials that can be recycled. An outreach campaign was a key part of this, particularly around the launch - featuring a fun music video with a local musician; a new comprehensive Zero Waste website listing materials suitable for each bin, as well as the lifecycles for each stream; social media activity; on-campus events; and over 300 hours delivered by staff and student volunteer 'Zero Waste Educators' carrying out in-person waste education.
None
A brief description of the measured positive impact(s) of the campaign (1st campaign):
Progress is being monitored through community feedback mechanisms such as surveys, on-site waste audits, and data from waste haulers.
Waste diversion for Nov/Dec 2013, prior to the campaign, was 28.5%; and the recent waste diversion numbers show an average of 42% diversion for May2014.
There have been almost 3,500 views of the music video, and over 4,000 views of the website. Over 300 volunteer hours were also delivered.
