Abstract
With support from Toyota, WWF has worked with the municipality of Santa Cruz since 2006 to improve the islands integrated solid waste management and recycling system by donating different colored containers for waste separation; hiring a waste management specialist and an environmental management expert to advise the municipality; and developing an educational campaign on recycling practices. Moreover, WWF provided technical assistance in 2008 to strengthen waste management in Santa Cruz, through the donation of a garbage compactor truck, a truck scale and its required accessories, and a mechanical composter. It has also supported other waste management and recycling activities on the islands of San Cristobal and Isabela.
