The Solid Waste Management Toolkit for Developing Countries
The Solid Waste Management Toolkit (the Toolkit) serves as a free resource to help communities implement solid waste management programs. The Toolkit’s primary audience is state and local government authorities—including decision-makers, policymakers, and agency staff involved in solid waste management in developing countries. Certain resources may be applicable to other interested parties such as non-governmental organizations, private sector actors, or residents.
