The overall aim of the project is to formulate new informative, economic, legislative and/or physical policy instruments and new combinations of such instruments aiming towards a more sustainable solid waste management.

A review of existing and proposed policy instruments will be performed. After a first screening, interesting instruments will be chosen for further evaluation in other projects in Towards Sustainable Waste Management.
