GGGI and the UCG decided to combine their efforts through this Memorandum to build an integrated solid waste management scheme in the City of Touba based on:

  • the capacity development and strengthening of actors;
  • the support for initiatives to promote hygiene and combat insalubrity;
  • the installation of a plastic waste pre-treatment unit;
  • the capitalization and replication of Touba’s experience in other cities

The UCG and GGGI will cooperate in the following areas: accompanying the implementation of the project, coordinating the implementation of communication & awareness campaigns for behavior changes, mobilizing funding, and sharing information and tools.
