About the webinar

On April 22nd, 2014, the “Alliance for Inclusive Recycling” was signed as an initiative of the National Government, led by the Ministry of Housing, City and Territory; with the aim of promoting the formalization and strengthening of trade recyclers nationwide as a strategy for social, technical and economic development of the use of solid waste; and to promote the formulation of a long-term public policy.

In this webinar we knew about the “Alliance for Inclusive Recycling” and show an example of a public-private partnership in the construction of strategies and public policies within a framework of social inclusion policies, sustainable and low emission development to strengthen the inclusive recycling.

The webinar was in Spanish. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the Secretariat of the LEDS LAC Platform: info@ledslac.org.
