Perhaps you can transform major challenges into blessings if your name is Blessing!\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
That was exactly what Blessing, one of our participants in our last concluded coding boot camp did; his desire to solve the waste management challenge with his recently acquired software development skills led him to develop a web application he called Eco Earn<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
\n
According to the Environmental Performance Index of 2024, Nigeria was ranked 105th out of 180 countries with a score of 27 out of 100, indicating Nigeria still generates massive amounts of solid waste, with poor collection and management posing immense threats to human and environmental health.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
If Eco-Earn is adopted, it will help in the collection and recovery of energy and materials from waste. In turn, it becomes a money-spinner for everyday people; according to the Managing Director of Pioneer Waste Master Limited, about $250 billion is yet to be tapped in Nigeria’s waste management sector. <\/span><\/div>\n
Eco Earn<\/span> <\/a>is an application that incentivizes the general public to separate and gather their waste in order to be collected by waste agents known as collectors at a price set by the admin of the application. The collectors will in turn sell to the recycling company at a profit margin. <\/b><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n
The application has an admin end where most activities are managed and reports are generated:<\/span><\/div>\n

Blessing developed this application from the technologies learned at Moat Academy Coding Bootcamp using HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and Javascript\/JQuery for the frontend along with PHP OOP for the backend.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Blessing is now with one of the commercial banks, whose process is to first incubate their new hires before full integration into their development team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We are happy once again to have stayed true to our commitment to raise remarkable software developers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
