Our projects on site only work because every day our team steers the boat, transports the collected waste to the Zero Waste Center, and sorts it there. In Cambodia, too, our team cleans rivers and waterways daily – we spoke with the two boat captains, Chhoeurng Chann and Toem Phornn, about the daily challenges they face in their work.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Besides that, everwave provides jobs for me and others in Cambodia, helping us support our families and daily lives.” <\/li>
  • Toem Phornn: “What motivates me most to work at everwave is its positive impact on our environment.

However, we spend a significant amount of time each day collecting waste and traveling along the river from one location to another.” <\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
