Project contact

This project addresses the need for a sustainable, circular approach to waste, emphasizing separate collection, reuse, and recycling to reduce environmental impact and enhance economic growth.

Through a multi-layered approach, the project will focus on:

Legislative harmonization: Developing waste management laws that align with the EU Waste Package to create a solid legal framework for sustainable practices.

Policy development: Strengthening policies and capacities across BiH to support waste reduction and foster collaboration among key stakeholders through structured working groups.

Practical solutions: Implementing collection and treatment schemes for special waste categories to ensure a sustainable circular economy model.

By supporting policy alignment, enhancing local skills, and fostering economic resilience, the project paves the way for BiH to transition toward a circular economy, ultimately improving resource use, creating jobs, and reducing waste management costs.
