As most of you know, healthcare waste (HCW) is a growing problem and will likely continue until we have developed materials that can fully breakdown into the environment without harm. Until this point, the dialogue on HCWM will remain of vital importance!

This page provides a list of resources related to HCWM, as well as materials developed by local governments, multinational organizations, and the private sector. Additionally, there are examples of successful practices, innovative techniques, strong policies, and the general landscape of HCWM that one must navigate through. The aim is to inform and guide constituents in the public and private sector to create an opportunity for constructive dialogue on everything from what it takes to design an HCWM plan, to applying best practices between existing HCWM models among countries in different contexts.

With talk we raise awareness; from awareness we build plans; through plans we find solutions. As we repeat, we adapt, and get better.

Here’s to making HCWM better; check out the page and contribute!
