    L'inflable, per reciclar saltant!
  Aware of the need to inform and educate the citizens on environmental matters, the Agència de Residus de Catalunya of the Department of the Environment and Housing gives loal authorities an element that complements the campaigns to encourage selective waste collection throughout Catalonia: a giant inflatable.

With this proposal, the Agència de Residus de Catalunya gives everyone a tool which helps to communicate the basic concepts of selective waste collection in an amusing manner and enhances the participation of the population. This large element is an optimal resource for installing in crowded places to take advantage of festivals, local celebrations, fairs, etc.

The selective waste collection inflatable is therefore a great playing area that works as a leisure and educational resource, using the complementary pedagogical material.

   Objectives
 
  • To provide an element that is highly attractive both for children and adults and works as an advertisement for the acts among which it is set.
  • To encourage citizen participation in the selective collection of household waste, influencing young people directly and also adults indirectly, on the basis of fun.
  • To provide a playful and festive yet educational resource to municipalities that wish to use it.
  • To inform children how waste is separated at source.
  • To reinforce the way to achieve the landmarks established in the new management model.
   Didactic activity
  Description

The didactic proposal consists of making a group of youngsters play with the inflatable by placing cushions (with drawings of waste) in the place that would correspond (selective waste collection containers or tip points) to give the most suitable treatment. This activity is intended to amuse and educate youngsters from 3 to 12.

Objectives
  • to raise awareness and promote the reduction of the waste we produce.
  • to work on the different types of materials that make up waste.
  • to know the town's selective waste collection system.
Methodology
  • A monitor involves children in an explanation of the 3Rs; Reduction, Recycling, Reuse; good personal practice and selective collection.
  • The activity then continues on the inflatable containers into which the children must put each waste type, drawn on an inflatable cushion, in the right container while playing and bouncing.
