Inter-district landfills could help address waste management challenges by eliminating reliance on informal dumpsites and uncontrolled disposal, according to a study by Transparency International Rwanda.
Inter-district landfills are waste management facilities designed to serve multiple districts or municipalities rather than just one local area.
Instead of each district operating its own small landfill, several districts collaborate to use a larger, centrally located landfill site.
Study findings presented on December 11 show that seven rural districts are struggling with waste management.
