Continuando a "apontar" para organismos não.governamentais que promovem o desenvolvimento económico, social e cultural através do uso da bicicleta, venho hoje falar da Re-Cycle.
A Re-Cycle dedica-se a enviar bicicletas usadas (ou mesmo novas) que lhe sejam doadas para organizações em África onde serão distribuidas.
Conforme a própria organização, "Re~Cycle is a UK charity committed to providing cheap, sustainable transport in Africa. We believe that bicycles offer poor people the best means to improve their lives, giving them opportunities to travel to work and school. They can also be adapted to carry goods and passengers giving small scale farmers and traders the opportunity to reach customers further afield. They are also an invaluable resource for traveling health workers coping with the AIDS epidemic.
We receive unwanted bikes from individuals and organisations such as the Royal Mail. These are checked over and prepared for shipment before being loaded into containers (approx. 400 each time) and sent to our various partner organisations in Africa. There, they are refurbished before being distributed by our African partners. Many of our partners also teach repair and maintenance skills."
