In April 2022, Ullas did a remote placement with the Municipality of Dysart et al as it's Waste Diversion Analyst. In this role, Ullas was responsible for two projects: researching textile diversion options, and developing promotion and education materials to support a food waste reduction campaign. His research included exploring global and national trends, surveying municipalities and textile service providers, and preparing a final report with recommendations and best practices. Ullas also created five post cards and twenty social media posts that highlight different aspects of food waste reduction. Dysart will be implementing this campaign in spring/summer 2022. It was a true pleasure working with Ullas! Working remotely, he was self-sufficient, self-motivated and results-oriented. He has great time management skills, and is open to learning new skills. Ullas' knowledge of waste management and community-based social marketing, and experience with social media and graphic design, make him an ideal candidate for any municipal waste management department, non-profit, or consultancy.
