“My name is Zakat Ziboh. I wake up early in the morning at 5 am, take my bath, get dressed, pick up my tools and my sack to go out and look for scraps. When I go out, sometimes, I get a lot of money, other times, I don’t get anything but that doesn’t stop me from going the next day” – Zakat Ziboh, Informal Waste Picker.
