This paper outlines a comprehensive strategy for Lao PDR to eliminate open waste burning (OWB), a prevalent disposal method caused by limited waste collection services. It emphasizes that OWB is a major source of toxic air pollutants like PM2.5 and black carbon, which severely threaten public health and exacerbate climate change. Rather than...

This Regional Roadmap to End Open Burning of Waste in Asia provides a structured, holistic, and evidence-based guide for policymakers, practitioners, academics, and development partners to eliminate OWB in a manner that is feasible, equitable, and aligned with global and national development priorities. The Roadmap draws on literature review...

This pilot project focuses on the underserved settlement of Bhutto Nagar in Sahiwal to address severe public health risks and environmental degradation. The program's core strategy involves formalizing the informal waste sector by organizing independent pickers into Waste Business Associations, providing them with professional training, safety gear...

The document outlines the comprehensive Solid Waste Management Strategy for the Sahiwal Division, focusing on transforming local waste practices into a modern, circular, and resource-efficient system across its districts (Sahiwal, Okara, and Pakpattan) over a fifteen-year period (2026–2040). Sahiwal generates increasing volumes of municipal solid...

The open burning of municipal solid waste (MSW) remains a prevalent yet underreported source of greenhouse gas (GHG) and air pollutant emissions, particularly in developing and transition economies. This study updates the 2006 IPCC activity inventory methods and subsequent refinements to quantify emissions from open waste burning (OWB) in Asian...

This report evaluates a pilot project in Padang, Indonesia, that introduced the digital application to modernise community-based waste banks. The study explores how digital transformation can improve operational efficiency, data accuracy, and transparency within a circular economy framework. While the initiative successfully digitised thousands of...

The Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) has launched its first Methane Reduction Roadmap, reinforcing its leadership as a Global Methane Pledge Champion. Methane is a potent short-lived climate pollutant, more than 80 times more powerful than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period. Reducing methane emissions offers rapid climate benefits, improved...

Open waste burning ( is a persistent and growing environmental and public health issue across Asia, particularly in low and lower-middle-income countries in Asia contribute to 82% of global CO 2 emissions from OWB, followed by Latin America and the Caribbean and Africa. This poster presents a comprehensive analysis of OWB using the DPSIR (Driving...
