Abstract

Rapid urbanisation and increased waste generation pose a challenge for solid waste management systems worldwide. As cities grow, municipalities must invest in sustainable, cost-effective waste management solutions, adapted to local contexts, to divert waste away from landfills, encourage compliance, and engage non-governmental actors in building cleaner, healthier, and more resilient urban environments.
