Participatory process of Urban Recyclers in drafting a Law for the Promotion of Recycling
Participatory process of Urban Recyclers in drafting a Law for the Promotion of Recycling was an initiative by the urban recyclers themselves when they learned of the drafting of a waste law in which they were not mentioned, despite having been working for 10 years with the Ministry of the Environment. The recyclers formed a team of representatives who went to the discussion of the bill, bringing with them conclusions from various exchange depots promoted by the organization. Finally, this group was incorporated in the final text of the legislation approved by the Chilean Congress.
