In Sarh, Chad, young people, women, a joint Chad-Central African Republic force, and municipal workers cleaned the Outel Bono Provincial Hospital on September 19 for World Cleanup Day.
The Réseau des Organisations des Jeunes du Moyen-Chari and the Conseil National des Jeunes du Tchad organized the event to emphasize that maintaining public spaces is a shared responsibility, not just the job of city services.
Participants used brooms and cleaning tools to improve the hospital grounds, hoping to inspire ongoing cleanliness throughout Sarh. Berengué Philippe, the committee president, stated the day should promote regular sanitation habits among citizens. Djimasra Madjadina, the deputy mayor of Sarh, praised the volunteers and noted the municipality cannot maintain the city alone, adding that a cleaner city depends on every resident avoiding litter and caring for their surroundings.
Mme Nguendoyom Mbaidene Géraldine, coordinator of women’s organizations, encouraged more women and young people to join future community efforts.
