Zero Waste Case Study in Bulgaria

Zero Waste Awareness-raising.

Romani Baht Foundation prepared a report about zero waste practices in Sofia that serves as basic information for discussions about Best Environmental Practices according to Article 5 of the Stockholm Convention. Topics include the waste management program in Sofia and the role of Roma scavengers. The report reveals that the Roma population recycles approximately 42 t/yr of waste. The case study indicates that this diversion of waste from burning prevented the formation of 1-150 mg dioxins/year.
