Dar Es Salaam Integrated Solid Waste Management, Tanzania, 1998

The International Labour Organisation (ILO) in collaboration with the UNCHS Habitat assists the Dar es Salaam City Commission in the implementation of an integrated solid waste management programme. The ILO has asked WASTE to provide assistance in the field of community-based waste management and small-scale recycling. WASTE assisted in the development of a waste collection plan for two communities and presented options for the enhancement of the waste paper, plastic and sheet metal recycling sector. CBOs were trained in running their own waste  collection businesses.
