Recycling Conference

According to a report by the Department of Environmental Affairs, the
National Waste Management Strategy (NWMS) which was improved in
2014 sets the priority areas for the implementation of the National
Environmental Management: Waste Act (NEMWA). The act provides for
the establishment of a Pricing Strategy for Waste management Charges as
well as the institutional mechanisms in a form of the Waste Management
Bureau, which will fast track the implementation of the recycling economy
in South Africa.
Targets are set to have 25% of recyclable waste diverted from landfill and
include the creation of employment and business opportunities through
waste management which includes driving the recycling economy,
implementing a varied regulatory system, creating jobs and SMMEs,
promoting public awareness and supporting waste service delivery
amongst others. Other opportunities include the remediation of
contaminated land, for which a remediation fund will be established.
It is acknowledged that effective waste management can contribute to job
creation thereby responding to the aspirations contained in the National
Development Plan, to provide a quality life for all. In this regard, The
Department of Environmental Affairs has embarked on law reforms to
accelerate economic growth in the waste sector focusing in waste
collection and recycling.
The effective and efficient management of waste is fundamental to the
sustainability of any society and the four previous conferences have
proved that. Now the 5th Annual Waste Management & Recycling
Conference shifts focus on the wealth side of waste, to reflect on whether
there is business in the Waste Management & Recycling sector.

There is a need to streamline the coordination of waste management
initiatives within the country and bring together all the role players. This
includes other government departments, provinces, municipalities,
private sector, civil society and the general public in order to ensure that
the plight of waste management is elevated.
It is against this background that this conference is organized. It will
provide an opportunity for participants to discuss the challenges faced in
developing waste management as well as improvements and
technologies used to manage waste.
