On October 17th, the First Nations Waste Minimization team was excited to host our 4th Waste Coordinator Meetup. Waste Management staff from eleven different First Nations were present at the event, which piggybacked off of the MARR Manitoba Community Recycling & Waste Reduction Forum held on October 15th/16th at Canad Inns Polo Park.
The Waste Coordinator Meetup presents an opportunity for waste coordinators from different First Nations to come together and discuss highlights, challenges, best practices, and networking. For communities just starting out with recycling, this opportunity is especially important for understanding the process of implementing recycling in their communities for the first time.
