Audience questions

What role should technology play when

planning a waste strategy?

How do you incorporate the

informal sector?

How important is the alignment

between City, Regional and Local

when developing a strategy?

How much engagement with the

public should there be during

strategy development?

Why do countries need a

waste strategy if the informal

sector is achieving high levels

of recycling?

Should you have a stand alone waste strategy or should it be part of a wider environmental strategy?

How frequently should you review a

strategy given changes to practice

and technology?

How do you balance ambition and

reality?

What role should the private sector play?

Is the monetisation of waste

management services a no-go in

transition economies, i.e. can consumers

be asked to pay for waste?

How do you decide on technology?

What’s fit for purpose?

Which waste materials should a strategy

include? What about hazardous waste?

What data do you need to inform a

strategy?

Vision: What/where do we want to be?

Strategy: What is the plan to get there?

Tactics: What are the specific actions we will take?

Strategic Planning

“A process of defining a strategy, or direction,

and making decisions on allocating resources to pursue this strategy,

including capital and people”.

Asking the key questions

Where are we?

Where do we want to be?

How do we get there?

Draft Strategy

Final Strategy and Action Plan

Measure

uccess C

ltatio

Define Vision Statement

Identify key goals that will measure if this “Vision” is being achieved

Identify themes which reflect the strategic purpose and direction

Set objectives under each “theme”; the actions required to achieve the

objective and KPIs / targets that measure if the actions/objectives

have been achieved

How does it fit together?

• Data underpins decision making

– Need to understand data quality and potential gaps

– Can you make informed decisions?

• Types of data

– Waste generation and material flows

– Waste composition

– Financial

– Sociodemographic

• Stakeholder mapping

– Capacity and infrastructure

– End markets

– Performance

– Number of people involved in waste operations

• Formal and informal sector

The role of data

• Aguaseo plan to develop a Materials Recovery Facility in Colon City to segregate materials for recycling and reduce the quantity of waste sent to landfill.

• Our support was split into two phases:

– Phase 1: Waste characterisation study to assess the quantity and quality of waste produced in Colon to assess its suitability for recycling

– Phase 2: Using the waste characterisation for Colon, review options for Material Recovery Facility design, and develop a high level business case and roadmap to facility development.

• Results will be used to inform waste collection service review, development of educational programmes and overall waste management strategy development.
