dc.descriptionThis directory provides a global reference to information sources on solid waste management, organised by world region and thematic areas including waste reduction, collection and transfer, composting, incineration, landfills, special wastes, waste characterisation, management and planning, training, public education, and financing. It describes regional waste management practices and highlights that, in Africa, materials recovery is undertaken predominantly by the informal sector through the reuse, source separation, and recycling of items with economic or social value at household and community levels. The directory compiles descriptions of organisations, government agencies, universities, research institutions, professional associations, and international bodies, together with their contact details, areas of expertise, publications, information services, consulting support, and languages, enabling users to identify sources of solid waste management information across Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, North America, and other regions.en
