Economic Approaches in Sustainable Development (2000 - 2003)

This was carried out through demonstration projects at various levels and entailed developing the capacity of the three levels of Government in using and expanding the scope of its application. For the initial stage, PE identified potential case studies including preparing preliminary case studies for consideration at an EPU workshop. For the implementation stage, PE carried out research as inputs into the background papers on the current status of the identified projects. All these were used for recommendations of action as well as in the handbook that was developed. The case studies included Pesticides Container Disposal, Management of Non-Useable Waste Lubricant Oil, Used Tyre Disposal Management, Solid Waste Management, Collection and Disposal of Handphone Batteries, and Management of Plastic Wastes.
