Improvement of Solid Waste Management – A & E Papua New Guinea, Solomon, Vanuatu and Samoa Project Completion Report

During the 1st Japan-Pacific Islands Leaders Meeting (PALM), convened in 1997, the importance of providing assistance by Japan to the Solid Waste Management sector in the Pacific Island Countries (PICs) was determined. In successive PALM meetings, which are held very three years, initiatives were taken to translate this decision into actions. Since 2000 JICA has been working closely with the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environmental Programme (SPREP) both on the regional as well as bilateral levels to improve SWM in the PICs, through dispatch of experts, developing the regional SWM strategy and provision of equipment and training.
