Incorporating innovative
social, financial, economic, local administrative and productive structures,
numerous renewable energy applications, with an important role for women in
poverty alleviation in rural and poor urban environments.

05.33 THE RECYCLING
STRUCTURES
This section refers to the
planned recycling structures as a general system. For technical details on the
recycling of the various types of organic waste at household level please refer
to to 6.26
Recycling structures.
A special fund is included
in the budget to cover the costs of setting up the recycling strucutures, which
have priority. The funds will be repaid by the beneficiaries in the same way as
those made available to the Beosite factories. They will take the form of
interest-free credits repayable according to the real possibilities of those
involved as decided during the organisational workshops during which the
structures are set up. The repayments will be financed by sale of materials such
as fertilisers and compost ourside the project area and by the "exportation" of
solid non-organic waste which are not recyclable within the project area itself.
For an illustration of a possible general structure for the integrated recycling
of waste in project areas refer to:
DRAWING OF WASTE DISPOSAL
STRUCTURES.
The work of the recycling
structures will be carried out within the local money LETS systems already set
up. One of the more interesting features of LETS systems is that, in contrast
with what happens in the western monetised economies, work considered as "dirty"
and/or "heavy" is usually better paid than "clean" and/or "light" work as the
rates charged will normally be related to the perceived value of an hour's work
in the forseeable normal working situation.
Usually at least two
Moraisian workshops will be held. Often, one workshop for each LETS loal money
system.
Indicative participation
(all workshops together)
The Moraisian trainers
The project coordinator
Consultant Terry Manning
At least one
representative of the ONG
Representative of the Finance Ministry
Representative of the Health Ministry
Representative of the Rural
Development ministry
At least 5 observers (possible coordinators for future
projects)
200 persons (male and female)indicated by the tank commissions,
interested in participating.
Duration of each workshop:
about six weeks.
The Workshops will be
expected to produce the following structures:
a) Definition of the social
form of the structures
- statutes
- rules
- professional and
administrative structures
- financial aspects including relations with the
Micro-credit institution
- relations with the local money LETS systems
b) Analysis of requirements
c) A structure for the
recycling centres
- Definition of the land requirements and the physical
structures necessary
- formalities and permits
- design of the centres
- construction of the centres
- purchase of the necessary equipment
d) A structure for the
collection/deposition of waste
- urine
- composted excreta
- waste
water
- other organic waste
- non organic solids
- special
industrial wastes
- medical wastes
- who will do what
- definition
of individual zones
- definition of specialisations
e) A commercial structures
- definition of the tarrifs applicable to the various types of material
- distribution of urine and composted excreta
- direct recycling of
certain materials
- contatcs for the exportation of materials not recyclable
locally
f) A monitoring structure
- sanitary conditions
- ecological conditions
- safety conditions
g) A communications
structure
- vertical, at project level (coordinator, centre managers,
collection structures, end users)
- horizontal, between centres
-
relations with local money LETS systems
- commercial, radio, website
