Narrativa / Comentarios

Came together in 2005. With new municipal rules,some municipalities have extended recognition to waste pickers. In other cases, in their haste to comply with rules have adopted methods of waste collection that have displaced waste pickers. The Alliance demands: waste pickers to be integrated into systems of door to door collection: measures should be taken to enhance and expand livelihoods and employment: provision for social security should be made in budgets of urban Local governments and state governments.
