Sensing local aims to capacitate ward committees with technical knowledge and expertise in Solid Waste Management, in order to support and aid local area planning, budgeting and implementation of solutions.
The two main components of the project will include the development of the following: Planning toolkit – Development of a Planning Framework for Zero Waste Wards, that is scalable and replicable across all 198 wards. (Will be piloted in 2 wards)
Technology selection tool – Development of a decision-making tool for the selection of technologies or a combination of them, in order to achieve maximum processing at the scale of a ward. (Will be piloted in 15 wards).
Project Start Date: April 2020
