Precious Plastic Project - KAUST

In 2022, Students for Sustainability, with support from the Sustainability Office, Facilities Management, and Averda, launched the Precious Plastic Project at KAUST (PPK).

For two years, Students for Sustainability led the initiative, organizing workshops and training sessions that brought together passionate individuals eager to learn about plastic pollution. More than 70 participants attended our activities, gaining hands-on knowledge about the properties of plastic and the processes involved in plastic recycling.

Throughout the journey, the project attracted significant attention from community members, particularly school teachers and children, who actively supported our efforts. Recognizing the project's potential, we strategized ways to maximize its impact. As a result, in 2024, PPK transitioned to become a Community Club under the Office of Community Life.

Students for Sustainability invite you to join and support the growth of this impactful project. Stay tuned here: PPK community club
