WORM partners met in Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam for the 3rd Consortium meeting of the project
WORM partners gathered to review and discuss the project’s recent progress, including the start of two Work Packages last month, and the next steps for WORM. Two major Work Packages were indeed launched in September: WP5 Recycling and waste management at field hospitals and WP6 Mitigation and Livelihoods.
The second day of this consortium meeting was dedicated to WORM’s interactive session at RMIT University Vietnam with international and Vietnamese stakeholders. The aim was to inform them about WORM’s objectives and activities and then to receive their input in parallel sessions.
60 participants contributed to data collection on Vietnam’s informal waste management sector and waste management in a field hospital. Innovative business models for humanitarian waste management were also discussed. At the same time, the plug and play models developed by RMIT as a decision support tool were tested live and received a great response from the participants.
We also take this opportunity to officially launch the WORM Catalogue! We look forward to your valuable contributions!
We kindly thank all participants for the great discussion and active participation!
