There was another extension workshop that discussed about knowledge and skills entitled "Manufacturing of cement vases using discarded fabrics", which happened in two phases at ANCRESMAT. The first phase comprised of the manufacturing of vases and the second phase addressed the growing of flowers. The main goal of this workshop was to supply the institution with vases, so that they could grow unconventional edible plants (PANC's). Those are native and seasonal plants and they will grow in selected parts of the country. They can feature some menus; healing of diseases and they can also decorate the area where the waste collectors sort out the materials. The participants used discarded towels and fabrics that were damped and submerged in liquid cement. They filled the moulds then, which were spread out on top of plastic canvas, taking the shape of a vase (Photo 3).

This was a Social Environmental Education initiative in which drew the university closer to the association of recycled material collectors and pickers, both essential institutions for the sustainability of our planet. The collectors, while they are working on the collecting and picking of the recyclable materials, are regular citizens that live and protect the environment through their work and have a very broad idea of how important their work and those materials are to the environment. The reuse of wasted materials expresses a meaningful contribution in order to achieve the goal of the sustainable development of our planet. The vases will occupy very little room in households or work Photo 2: Manufacturing of vases and growing of unconventional edible plants workshop (PANC’s)
