Regenize is building a recycling solution for the South African context focused on accessibility, inclusivity, and behaviour change.We provide residents with a free recycling collection service. The collection of the recyclables are performed by local Recycling Skarellers (Waste Pickers/Reclaimers/Informal Collectors) whom we partner with. We provide the Recycling Skarellers a smartphone to connect them to the households, a uniform, and a recycling tricycle. Add to this our decentralised Local Hubs, it results in increased efficiency, income, and dignity for Recycling Skarellers.After each collection residents get rewarded with Remali, our behaviour change platform. Remali is like Discovery’s Vitality, but for sustainable behaviours, focusing on getting people to reduce, reuse, and recycle. In exchange, residents can use their Remali to purchase vouchers, such as airtime, data, or grocery vouchers. We are also piloting a new model called Simplified Remali which integrates with spaza shops. This will allow residents without access to the internet to utilise their Remali.
