Abstract

Waste management is widely recognised as a major concern for PICTs, with the potential to negatively impact on national development activities, including tourism and trade, food supplies, public health and the environment. The Solid Waste Management Strategy and Action Plan sets out a long term programme for addressing waste management issues in the region to avoid these adverse social, economic and environmental effects.
