The following presents CCBO’s Initial Solid Waste Management Assessment (ISWMA) for the program’s four “engagement sites” in the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka (Sri Lanka) and the Republic of Maldives (Maldives). Sri Lanka engagement sites include the Colombo Metropolitan Area, Galle, and District of Jaffna. Malé is CCBO’s engagement site in the Maldives.

The ISWMA is one of CCBO’s first steps in its launch of in-field implementation and will support its engagement sites to create improvements that will lead to sustainable, integrated waste management systems that will help restore the region’s natural environment, advance urban planning and management, and improve public health. The ISWMA’s main objectives are to:

  • Identify the existing components of the solid waste management (SWM) systems in each of the engagement sites;
  • Assess and determine those areas that are expected to need improvements;
  • Identify additional information that is needed to support implementation for improved systems; and
  • Provide recommendations which will ultimately inform the program’s Year One and subsequent Works Plans as well as local SWM Plans for each engagement site.
