[For Municipalities] Start for Free: Litter and Cleanup Measures You Can Take Before You Have a Budget

This seminar is held in Japanese.

Start for Free: Litter and Cleanup Measures You Can Take Before You Have a Budget

“We want to do something about littering and illegal dumping.” “We want to make local cleanup activities more active.”
Even so, securing a new budget is hard, and many staff cannot act until next fiscal year's planning.

In fact, the litter-picking app Pirika is free to use. If your municipality only opens an official account and invites residents to post, it costs nothing. Some municipalities are already spreading litter picking for free through an official account.

This webinar explains what you can do for free and how to decide when to move to the paid version.
