Abstract

The overall objective of this project was to design, implement and evaluate solid waste management around houses and streets at Guluka Kwalala. Such wastes would then be sold to interested companies for recycling. Analysis of this project was done using both quantitative and qualitative approaches. During the CNA different needs were found and assessed to draw possible solution for them. Such solutions were then practiced and separation of recyclable plastic bottles from other garbage for recycling was the first priority. The project involved collection and separation of solid wastes based on their decomposability. The success of this project will help the local environment a lot in terms of cleanness and maintenance of the ecosystem. Also the income generated through sell of recyclable wastes will increase income for youth of Guluka Kwalala.
