Strategic Action Plan - International Environmental Technology Centre

Strategic Action Plan Report
The ISWM action plan needs to be presented to the key officials of PMC and other key stakeholders
who have the responsibility for the management of solid waste management in the city. Moreover,
these responsible authorities need to be exposed and trained about the various new concepts and
approaches introduced through the action plan.
The proposed 2-day training program is designed to accomplish following objectives:
1. To understand the issues in Solid Waste Management: Current Status, Policy and Legislative
framework
2. To understand the concept of ISWM in the context of Pune city – especially regarding different
type of waste streams, their significance and management
3. To introduce the ISWM Action Plan developed for Pune City
4. To understand key concepts and important elements of the ISWM action plan such as 3Rs, SAT;
centralized and decentralized options, waste to value chains, PPP etc.
5. To facilitate a discussion on the various elements of ISWM Action Plan for Pune to ensure that
it is effective and practical in meeting the needs of the City and the PMC.
6. To provide resources to the participants to facilitate implementation
Participants
About 30 participants from the concerned departments of the PMC and other key agencies (like
Hospitals Association, Software Technology Parks, Builders Association, Maharashtra Pollution
Control Board) responsible for the solid waste management may be invited.
Training Methodology
The training program will consist of short lectures followed by group discussions. Typically for each
session the lecture would not exceed 30 to 45 minutes and the remaining time would be devoted for
