Back zero waste policy with civil society in Bogota

Political will plus neighbourhood action

Bogotá appears among Latin American districts with zero waste commitments where political will and civil-society partners work together, a regional pattern GAIA members support through environmental education, source segregation, and policy reform.

What you can do

  • Join a local environmental group pushing for source separation and recycler inclusion in your locality.
  • Request zero-waste training for your school or neighbourhood council through GAIA-linked partners in Colombia.

Why it matters

Municipal zero waste succeeds when residents and recyclers co-design systems, not when waste is privatised into landfills or incineration.
