Civic Response Team has established partnerships with stakeholders such as local government authorities, sanitation workers, residents, waste pickers from the informal sectors and many others in the Municipal Solid Waste Management ecosystem to ensure sustainability of the processes to streamline waste management processes. By being a member of the PREVENT Waste Alliance, we hope to contribute to identify partnerships that focus on optimum resource recovery while creating and enhancing dignified livelihoods for those working in the space of waste management.
We at Civic Response team, believe in the role that informal waste pickers play in enabling the creation of a circular economy. Through our work, we onboard these waste pickers into a formal system, giving them a safe space to work from. Our process – BOTRAM has been designed to ensure that 90% of the waste that would end up being dumped into a landfill is diverted and generates value which not only contributes to a cleaner environment but also enhances livelihoods for waste pickers.
