RT null T1 How to mainstream gender into national waste management policy - Case study from Nepal A2 Adhikaree, Karuna K1 gender mainstreaming K1 waste management YR 2025 FD 2025-05 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/47569 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/47569 NO Despite women’s extensive engagement within the informal sector as waste pickers, for example, working at waste transfer stations or open dumps, women were previously not recognized as stakeholders in the first place. This made it difficult in the past for the stakeholders, including the policymakers, to reflectgender aspects into national waste management policies and programmes. However, it gradually changed during the development of the draft Nepal National Waste Management Strategy and Action Plan 2020-2025. DS UN Environment Document Repository RD Sep 19, 2026
