| Summary: | This roadmap is based on analyses of the
experiences with waste management in Azerbaijan, Belarus,
Bulgaria, Japan, Romania, and the European Union (EU)
generally. The experiences of other countries concerning
waste management - Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Ukraine,
Kazakhstan, and Russia - have also informed the document. By
comparing implementation conditions across the case studies,
the roadmap draws lessons and emphasizes that enhancing the
waste management sector is a gradual process, changes should
be introduced incrementally, and the sector is to improve
steadily achieving organic growth. Special attention is paid
to the building blocks of a well-functioning waste
management system, including reliable data, legislation,
institutional framework, financing, public communication and
participation, management capacity, and operations. The
intention of this roadmap is to provide a simple list of key
issues and their sequencing that may be used by national and
regional/local authorities in the conceptualization and
implementation of municipal solid waste management reforms.
The issues identified are not exhaustive and are intended as
a guideline for policy makers who are not sector
specialists. The work was led Daniel Levine. The roadmap
document was developed by Kremena Ionkova and Gerard
Simonis. The research team was composed of Shiko Hayashi,
Mihail Staynov, Diana Gheorghiu, Anatol Shagun and Gerard Simonis. |
