As the world grapples with mounting environmental challenges, BRAC remains committed to fostering sustainable practices by encouraging its employees to embrace a circular economy. In line with this commitment, BRAC successfully hosted its annual Declutter Fair, a unique initiative designed to promote mindful consumption and waste reduction.
Held on 12 and 13 February 2025 at the BRAC Centre plaza grounds, the fair provided a platform for BRAC employees to exchange and repurpose pre-owned items, fostering a culture of sustainability within the organisation. By extending the lifespan of everyday products, the initiative contributes to reducing carbon emissions and minimising waste – key components of BRAC’s broader sustainability strategy.
The fair featured a diverse range of items, from vintage collectibles to modern gadgets, including leather shoes, handicraft goods, wedding accessories, saris, power banks, headphones, film cameras, and rare finds such as gramophones and record players. The variety of items showcased the value of reuse and the potential for everyday objects to find renewed purpose.
