Integrated Support for a Sustainable Urban Environment

Waste management problems in cities all over the world
The ISWM insight is that most waste management problems have to do with something other than money and equipment. Some problems have to do with the:
attitude and behaviour of citizens,
waste management staff,
private enterprises and
waste pickers.
