A lot still remains to be done, but the outlook for the region is much less gloomy than just a few years ago. The Waste Management Outlook for Central Asia provides a richly illustrated synthesis of the regional waste challenges, along with facts and figures from the countries. Communication maps, diagrams, illustrations and case studies from all over the region complement the well-researched text. The outlook guides the reader from global principles to local management solutions. Policymakers in the region, practitioners worldwide and non-specialists and the general public alike will appreciate the easily understandable text and illustrations.
