We co-create waste management solutions
​
designed in and suited to local conditions​
​
A key tool to improve waste management is to develop strong local waste management plans. Local authorities may plan targets, timelines for investments and define how the responsibilities will be carried out and financed for years ahead. A local waste management plan is adapted to local conditions including geography, demographics, economic structure, responsibilities and management of municipal solid waste. We believe that there is no “one size fits all” in waste management. We use a 7-steps ISWM approach for waste management planning and stakeholder engagement process. In this approach, the stakeholders - users and local institutions - make the decisions and choose the system that meets their needs and preferences.

OUR GOALS
Cocreating solutions to address
marine plastic pollution
​
Improved municipal solid waste management creates less marine littering.
Our goals are to prevent and significantly reduce marine litter and microplastics pollution (SDG 14.1), through:
Improved municipal solid waste collection and controlled management of waste (SDG 11.6.1)
Increased recycling of suitable materials (SDG 12.5.1)
