Focusing on five areas with an impact on the livelihoods of informal waste workers, this report presents key policy recommendations ideated by youth based on inputs from informal waste workers and feedback from other stakeholders.
The Waste Hero Alliance is the result of an innovative multi-stakeholder policy dialogue series that connected informal waste workers and youth in Bangladesh, Lao PDR, the Philippines and Thailand and engaged others with a stake or interest in solid waste management and crosscutting related subjects, including academia, civil society organizations, private sector and government institutions.
The dialogue series resulted in five key policy recommendations presented in the report along with implementation ideas and spotlights on existing initiatives. The report aims to invite a cross-sectoral movement of allies committed to contributing to a shared vision of an inclusive circular economy with empowered workers.
