The Ugandan government has partnered with Ghana's Jospong Group of Companies (JGC) to decommission the 39-acre Kiteezi Landfill in the Wakiso District near Kampala.
The decommissioned site will be transformed into an ecological recreational facility.
Additionally, JGC plans to invest in integrated composting and recycling systems as well as transfer stations, providing comprehensive waste treatment and disposal solutions to improve environmental sanitation in the Greater Kampala Metropolitan Area.
This system will produce organic compost for agricultural and horticultural applications, while recovered plastics will serve as raw materials for a new bin manufacturing facility.
