Gov’t to provide industrial crushers to support informal waste recyclers
Government plans to provide industrial crushers to informal waste recyclers as part of efforts to strengthen recycling and create better economic opportunities for young people working at landfill sites.
Local Government Minister Mahama Ayariga announced the initiative during an inspection of waste sorting operations, where he observed young workers recovering plastics, metals, glass and other materials from discarded waste.
The government believes supporting such workers with equipment could help expand recycling while reducing the volume of waste sent to landfills.
