Abstract

After adapting its waste legislation to the EU Aquis, Turkey is now focusing on creating the necessary structures for implementation. Financing further waste management measures in municipalities is playing a crucial role in this. The project aimed at sensitizing Turkish decision-makers for cost-covering and polluter oriented financing mechanisms that could help in promoting the development of a modern municipal waste management system.
