ZERO WASTE STRATEGIES FOR URBAN AREAS IN SOUTH AFRICA
© IWWG International Waste Working Group (10/2007)
Solid waste management in developing countries is characterised by highly inefficient waste collection practices, inadequate levels of service, limited resources, lack of environmental control systems, indiscriminate dumping, littering and scavenging and a poor environmental and waste awareness of the general public (Onu, 2000). South Africa, as other emerging countries, is striving towards meeting international standards by applying advanced concepts such as the waste hierarchy and zero waste to their environmental policies.

THE EFFECTS OF LOCAL CULTURAL AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC FEATURES ON THE STRUCTURE OF SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES: THE CASE OF THE PHILIPPINES AND VIETNAM
© IWWG International Waste Working Group (10/2007)
Solid waste management is a major responsibility of local governments. It is a difficult task because it depends upon organization and cooperation between households, communities, private enterprises, and municipal authorities. It is also dependent upon the selection and application of appropriate technical solutions for waste collection, transfer, recycling and disposal. Waste management has important consequences for public health and well-being, and the quality and sustainability of the urban environment. Unfortunately, waste management services in many developing countries are inadequate; a large part of the population does not have access to a waste collection service and only a small fraction of the generated waste is actually collected.
