WASTE AND WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT

Waste collection does not extend into the rural areas of Ra and Kadavu. A number of waste management activities were therefore undertaken by RESCCUE in Ra – either at individual houses in the case of the construction of composting toilets or at the village level in the case of waste segregation training and incinerator construction. In addition, waste water management was improved in various villages including by setting up grey- and black-water disposal areas, installing separation systems and planting aquatic species for processing waste water (phyto-purification).  

In Kadavu, the project supported the development of community-based waste and waste-water management plans which will be executed as part of the overall ICM Plan implementation.
