Tutator and Eco Brixs<\/a> are collaborating to launch a new digital application designed to record, analyze, and disseminate impact data from Eco Brixs\u2019 community-driven recycling program in Uganda. This initiative aims to enhance Eco Brixs\u2019 operational efficiency, enabling the organization to provide better services to its beneficiaries and generate real-time impact data, further amplifying its effectiveness in driving positive change. <\/p>\n\n

Fondation Tutator, a Swiss non-profit, leverages technology to improve global social services. In its \u201cTutator Forward 2023-2024\u201d grant program, over 800 organizations applied for tailored software solutions. After a rigorous selection process, Eco Brixs was chosen as a winner to enhance its impactful initiatives. <\/p>\n\n

Gilles Concordel, President of Fondation Tutator, expresses his enthusiasm for the project, stating: \u201cAt Tutator, our mission is to amplify the impact of social organizations globally. We are thrilled with our partnership with Eco Brixs, which promises to significantly enhance the welfare of families in Uganda and contribute positively to the environment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Founded in 2018, Eco Brixs<\/a> is a registered charity addressing plastic pollution and unemployment in Uganda. They buy plastic waste from local communities, recycle it into new products, and reinvest the income to purchase more plastic waste, creating a sustainable cycle. To date, Eco Brixs has recycled 1000 tonnes of plastic waste and provided jobs for over 3,000 marginalized individuals. <\/p>\n\n

Currently, Eco Brixs collects impact data through a labor-intensive process of writing paper receipts and manually inputting data into a database. With Tutator\u2019s support in developing new software, Eco Brixs\u2019 staff in Masaka City and 44 Recycling Hubs will digitally capture this data. This solution allows for automatic uploads to a new database, reducing processing time from days to minutes and enabling deeper insights into their beneficiaries. <\/p>\n\n

As Bashira Mirembe, Eco Brixs\u2019 Monitoring & Evaluation Manager, says: \u201cThe new app will make a big difference for our plastic collectors. With it, we can easily track how much plastic they collect, helping us understand their hard work better. Together, we\u2019re making a real difference in keeping our planet clean!\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Eco Brixs\u2019 CEO, Andy Bownds, looks forward to using real-time impact data to enhance transparency and accountability in the charity sector: \u201cThe Management & Evaluation app will streamline our data collection, helping us better understand the needs of our beneficiary base and maximizing plastic waste collection. Analyzing and reacting in real-time means we can empower our beneficiaries quickly \u2013 planning expansion, awareness campaigns, and logistics in line with our sustainability needs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

The new software is scheduled for launch in Autumn 2024 and will be available at www.ecobrixs.org<\/a>, marking a significant milestone in Eco Brixs and Tutator\u2019s journey towards leveraging technology for sustainable impact in Uganda.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
