Goumbook is a UAE sustainable NGO with the support of the Dubai municipality.

Working together with another student we introduced to our school a campaign called ‘Save the Cigarette Butts, Waste to Value’. We organised a beach clean-up initiatives raising awareness and community engagement of the big problem occurring in Dubai; most cigarette filters are 95% plastic and our beaches are filled with them. Just in one weekend, popular beaches like Kite beach in Dubai accumulates thousands of butts. 2 years worth of scheduling, immense planning and communication between different teams and departments within the Dubai municipality to allow access for our students to public beaches and the authority to conduct safe and effective cleanups.
