Care Assam has launched an endeavour, Affordable Waste Management Initiative (AWMI) as an attempt to find solutions to waste management in Guwahati. The core objective is to offer a waste management design to the city in the form of satellite plants which could be easily fabricated by local materials and technology, which is self-sustaining, and revenue earning and which would supplement as well as complement the government’s waste disposal system. The model is designed to offer the citizens a zero-waste place to live in, thereby enhancing the quality of the surroundings.
