Context
Over 500 itinerant waste recuperators and some 60 informal wholesalers are present in Rabat-Salé. Their practices are unstable, unhealthy and lack technical, economic, and social means. Furthermore, within the context of the definition of the Directing Scheme for the Management of Solid Wastes (SDGDS) as well as a privatisation scheme, this channel must be officially taken into consideration in order to ensure the efficiency and sustainability of the numerous jobs it sustains.
Objectives
The project aims to regularise the land tenure of the 50-60 wholesalers, to increase the knowledge and recognition of the 500-600 itinerant recuperators, to inform and raise the awareness of local and national institutional actors involved in solid waste management, the establishment of operational partnerships between private, state and informal actors, to give access to credit for the wholesalers and recuperators, and to reduce the nuisance induced on the inhabitants by the recovery and storage of wastes.
Description of activities
Following the first 6-month phase, the second phase covers a period of 18 months and includes:
- The creation of an investment fund for the establishment of sites by wholesalers authorised by the communes;
- The identification of a common site for all the wholesalers of Salé, and the definition of its functioning, planning and funding;
- The census and recognition by the communes and local authorities of the itinerant recuperators;
- The creation of a micro credit fund for the purchase of material for the itinerant recuperators;
- An information campaign by the media to raise awareness of the local population
- The signature of contracts formalising moral and financial engagements with various institutional, private and informal actors.
