Features

What SAAGDO does

An app for citizens, a platform for those who act on the ground.

  • Report waste

    Citizens photograph a waste dump and report it in seconds from the app.

  • LAABAL brigade

    An anonymous report, sent straight to the LAABAL brigade.

  • Routing and follow-up

    Each report is sent to the town hall or the LAABAL brigade, then followed until clean-up: pending, in progress, done.

  • Public toilets

    A map of the public toilets available in Ouagadougou.

  • Dashboard

    For managers: report map, statistics and user management.

  • Citizen challenge

    A ranking of the most active users and a challenge based on real actions.
