Canal It Up is a Brussels-based initiative focused on creating a clean, plastic-free canal in the city so nature can find its place.
Canal It Up works towards achieving structural solutions to the issues of floating trash, bad water quality and lack of nature in the canal and the river Senne in Brussels. Some of these solutions include organising awareness-raising activities; greening the canal and building vegetalised islands with aquatic plants; installing a trash barrier; improving water quality; and recycling the trash collected in the canal.
