Participants of the workshop were drawn from ten neighborhoods in Limbe with five persons representing each of the neighborhoods. The Divisional Delegate of the Environment, Nature Protection and Sustainable Development for Fako in the South West Region of Cameroon officially opened the workshop.

The participants of the workshop were schooled on ranging from Government Action in Promulgating Environmental Cleanliness in the city of Limbe, Community Waste Generation and Disposal, Health Hazards and Tree Planting plus Market Gardening. It is important to note that the three day workshop is in prelude of an Environmental Cleanup Campaign that will be organized in Limbe.
