The project Zero Waste aims at developing an integrated zero-waste management system with the aim to maximize resources and energy and to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills, deviating the amount of materials and resources in order to re-use them and include them in recycling schemes and processes that act as drivers of economic activity and sustainable development of the regions. In this way it could be naturally integrated in the MED space Axe 2 for protection of the environment and promotion of a sustainable territorial development. The inclusion of the initiatives Pay as You Throw (PAYT) and implementation of biowaste management (home and community composting) as a significant part of the project’s realisation, includes the involvement of stakeholder groups of local and national institutions. Sensitization and information campaigns will promote the application of zero waste strategies to the general public. The partners have a significant experience in waste management and gathering their know-how on a common ground will be of a great benefit for the common goal as a transferable model will be built adaptable to regions in a different state of economic development. The transnational value of the project and specifically the capitalization of best practices will help Municipalities include and apply the tangible waste management tools produced by the partners in their local policies. This will support a better quality of life of the local population.
