Solid Waste Management in cross-border rural and coastal areas of South Eastern Europe

Project process #1: Key messages

1. The capacities of pilot municipalities in waste

collecting, proper disposition and recycling are

underdeveloped.

2. The impacts of solid waste mismanagement extend

beyond the municipal and national borders.

3. The transboundary adverse impacts can only be solved

by an integrated multi-stakeholder and multi-level

transboundary approach.
