Community Participation in Waste Management
UWEP Working Document 2. Author : Justine Anschütz. Date : May 1996.

This literature review of community-based solid waste and water supply projects has been
conducted on behalf of WASTE, Gouda, as part of their Urban Waste Expertise Programme. It is a preparatory study in the field of community participation in waste management.

Maintenance of established infrastructure and services is a major problem in developing countries nowadays. In the water supply sector, community participation and management have been identified as possible solutions to maintenance problems. A solid waste management system is in fact a continuous maintenance system, which always requires community participation.
