The Waste App is a project I developed in 2025, as part of a group called Fusion 5, while enrolled in ALx's professional foundations programme. I assumed the mock roles of  UX designer and product manager in the team, and my main responsibilities were mainly the development and promotion of the solution we were tasked with creating. 

After applying the invaluable research techniques we were taught in the programme, we discovered an inefficiency in how waste is managed in South Africa. My team and I then developed the idea of a multipurpose waste management app, designed to bridge the gap caused by poor infrastructure, all the while teaching proper waste management habits through games and offering rewards.
