How our Waste-to-Use Challenge is fast-tracking circular economy innovation in The Gambia
Imagine what can be achieved when you bring together over 200 people who share a common purpose of wanting to solve their country’s growing...
At WasteAid, we work with communities and policy makers in low and middle-income countries to implement waste management and recycling programmes. Our work improves the livelihoods of some of the poorest and most marginalised, supports grassroots entrepreneurs and promotes circular economy innovation contributing to a cleaner and healthier future for all. Waste management helps address some of the world’s most pressing issues and is critical to achieving sustainable development.
WasteAid’s programmes tackle 4 major waste streams that have a significant and detrimental effect on people and planet in the countries where we work. We constantly strive to find new ways of tackling each of these waste streams and new areas of need that would benefit from WasteAid’s support.
Plastics
Organic
Textiles
Electronics (WEEE)
To tackle these issues, we promote and share locally-appropriate, evidence based, and inclusive waste management and recycling practices. We support communities and local structures to take positive action to support themselves.
