Kicking the Bags Out is a campaign that The Centre for Zero Waste & Development in Africa (CZWDA) has been doing since 2015 to promote a complete ban on single-use plastics in Zambia. This campaign aims to raise awareness about the critical need for enacting legislation banning single-use plastic bags in Zambia and the rest of Africa among citizens, students, organizations, legislators, and government leaders.
