AIESEC in University of Kelaniya is set to bring back WAVEZ 2026, its annual environmental conservation initiative, on 19th July 2026 at Wellawatte Beach.
The initiative is expected t no bring together over 200 local and international volunteers, united by a shared commitment to protecting Sri Lanka’s coastline and marine ecosystems. The day will commence with an awareness walk from St. Peter’s College, Colombo 4, followed by a large-scale beach cleanup aimed at reducing coastal pollution and raising environmental awareness
.
As part of this year’s initiative, WAVEZ 2026 will contribute to the #TrackTheTrash Challenge by supporting a waste audit conducted during the cleanup. Volunteers will help identify, sort, and record the types of litter collected, generating valuable data that contributes to a better understanding of pollution patterns while participating in an engaging, gamified cleanup experience.
To further strengthen the initiative’s environmental impact, all non-biodegradable waste collected during the cleanup will be responsibly diverted for recycling, ensuring that the effort extends far beyond a single day of action
