The project fostered sustainable behavioral changes among team members, café owners, and staff, enhancing environmental consciousness and boosting the café’s sales revenue. It resulted in a significant reduction in food waste and improved waste segregation practices, while also attracting local government attention.

The @greenrise_np15 social media account reached 4.7k users, and student awareness of e-waste’s harmful effects increased. A podcast raised awareness about climate change and gender impacts, amplifying the message of climate action.
