Route 360 Solutions Initiative

We are excited to partner with Impact Link Afrika for the 2026 Impact Afrika Fellowship. The fellowship aims to bridge the gap between Africa’s youth and mission-driven organizations seeking to benefit from their capacities, allowing the two entities to collaborate and benefit from each other.

The fellowship will officially kick off in August this year with application set to open in June. As a partner organization, Route 360 Solutions Initiative will be providing spots for 1-2 fellows to work with us throughout their fellowship.

If you’re a young person and this sounds exciting, please follow Impact Link Afrika for more updates: https://www.instagram.com/impactlinkafrika?igsh=MTJqOGVwNDY4eWlocw==.

Our second sets (25 copies) of the 75 climate disaster management books 📚 distributed in the Kroo Bay slum this past Saturday. Great job done so far by the Building Climate Resilience in the Slums Project team 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.

On this International Workers’ Day, we celebrate the amazing work the Route 360 Solutions Initiative team has done and is still doing in the Kroo Bay and Susan’s Bay slums through the Building Climate Resilience in the Slums Project 🧱♻️. As youth, we remain committed to contributing to development at all levels.

As the fight against climate change continues, Route 360 Solutions Initiative stand firm with the most affected communities. Last Saturday, we successfully distributed 25 climate disaster management books 📚 to youth and women in Cockle Bay through the Building Climate Resilience in the Slums Project. We hope that with these books, they will prevent, mitigate, prepare, respond to, and recover from climate change 🌍.

Happy Independence Day Mama Salone 🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱. As we celebrate this 65th anniversary, Route 360 Solutions Initiative reinstates its commitment to making Sierra Leone a better nation for all in its own little ways.

We are excited to share that Route 360 Solutions Initiative will be sharing 75 books📚 on climate disaster management in the Kroo Bay, Cockle Bay, and Susan’s Bay slums through the Building Climate Resilience in the Slums Project ♻️🧱.

This Saturday, 25th April, 2025, 25 books will be distributed in the Cockle Bay slum during the climate disaster management workshop, with 80+ youth and women being empowered by the project team.

With these books, they will learn about different climate disasters and their impacts, and how to prevent, mitigate, prepare, respond to, and recover from them. What stood out to us in these books is the fact that they provide a roadmap for decision-making during a disaster.

This wouldn’t have been possible without the support of the UNDP Rome Centre and Ministero dell'Ambiente e della Sicurezza Energetica through the Youth4Climate initiative.

There is no better way to celebrate this Earth 🌍 month than this 🔥🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾.

As we celebrate “Earth Day” today, Route 360 Solutions Initiative reflects on its commitment to protecting the Earth 🌍. Our tree planting initiative, Re-afforesting Freetown City 🌱🌱, and resilience project, Building Climate Resilience in the Slums Project ♻️🧱, are testament to how we contribute to making the Earth a safe place for all 😁🫡.

Honoring the dedication of our Community Outreach and Engagement Lead, Sallieu Barba Kamara, Recycling Educator 1, Santigie Korom, and Recycling Educator 2, Michael Williams, for the second quarter of the Building Climate Resilience in the Slums Project ♻️🧱.

Sallieu and Santigie were honored in the first quarter of the project and have been honored again for the second quarter with Michael joining them this time around.

From punctuality to engagement of the project beneficiaries, the contributions of these individuals are highly appreciated 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

We are excited to introduce Christopher Subano from Kenya 🇰🇪.

Christopher is the Building Climate Resilience in the Slums Project Advisor, assigned by the UNDP Rome Centre. He has over 10 years of consulting, project scaling, business development, and community engagement experience amongst others. He has been supporting BCRS project team in all step of the way—from planning to community engagement and partnerships.

We sincerely appreciate his contributions to the project’s impacts so far, including the engagement of over 160 youth and women in waste management and recycling in the Kroo Bay and Cockle Bay slums over the last six months.

Thirty youth and women trained in recycling ♻️🧱, 30 certificates awarded in Cockle Bay, one of the Building Climate Resilience in the Slums Project communities. This makes it over 60 youth and women trained in two of the three project communities in the last six months. What a journey this has been for our team.

Our goal is not only to empower young people in slums, but also support them in the best possible ways to put their knowledge and skills into practice.

This project is proudly funded and technically supported by UNDP Rome Centre and Ministero dell'Ambiente e della Sicurezza Energetica through the Youth4Climate initiative.
