| dc.description | This brief explains how gender influences waste management practices, highlighting differing perceptions of waste shaped by household roles and responsibilities. It outlines variations in service preferences, labour division, and access to income and decision making. The text describes how formalisation, technology choices, and unpaid work can disadvantage women, while also identifying distinct health risks from exposure to hazardous materials, emphasising the need to integrate gender considerations into planning and implementation. | en |
