The study evaluates the institutional and operational context for inclusive recycling in twelve (12) Latin American and Caribbean cities through a set of qualitative and quantitative indicators. The purpose of the study is to assess the current situation of inclusion and formal organisation of grassroots recyclers as part of the integrated sustainable waste management chain. This study does not intend to evaluate the status of the recycling chain as a whole. We recommend using this report together with other studies designed to identify and classify waste management systems and recycling markets.
