4. • IETC is a branch of UNEP / Division of
Technology, Industry and Economy
(DTIE), and is responsible for works
relevant to waste management.
• Its main function is to promote the
application of Environmentally Sound
Technologies (ESTs) in developing
countries and countries in transition,
with a focus on waste management
related issues.

Challenge: Increasing Waste Generation
Currently, world cities generate about 1.3 billion tonnes of solid waste per
year. This volume is expected to increase to 2.2 billion tonnes by 2025.
“Lower income cities in Asia and Africa will double their municipal solid waste
generation within next 15-20 years”

Resource Challenges for Asia & the Pacific
8
•UNEP’s GEO-6 Report: Regional
Assessment for Asia & the Pacific (2016)
indicated that the region’s material
consumption accounted for more than 50
percent of global consumption in 2015.
• Further, UNEP’s REEO report (2011)
confirmed that material resource
consumption would increase 3 times in
2050 compared to 2005 in Asia-Pacific
region.
•Even if resource and energy efficiency
increase by 50%, resource consumption
continues to expand with supply demands.
•Therefore, developing economies need
to increase its resource efficiency on the
one hand; developed economies need to
shift policy and investment for systems
innovation towards decreasing resource
consumption.

20th CENTURY
WASTE
MANAGEMENT
“How do we get rid of our
waste efficiently with minimum
damage to public health and
the environment?”

RESOURCE
MANAGEMENT
“How do we handle our discarded resources
in ways which do not deprive future
generations of some, if not all, of their

Collaborating Centre: Work Plan (1)
1. Supporting Development / Implementation of National, City & Regional Level
Waste Management Strategies and Action Plans
- Supporting Myanmar, Cambodia and their target cities (Mandalay/Phnom Penh) for the
development of national as well as city-level Holistic Waste Management Strategies and
Action Plans, and for implementation of pilot projects.
- Providing technical assistance to Maldives towards the development of regional waste
management plan in line with existing national strategy (1st Workshop scheduled May 2017).
- Additional target countries to be considered in future upon requests from stakeholders.
Outreach activities for other cities in the selected countries and expansion of the project to
other countries will also be explored.

２．Contribution to development of Knowledge-hub and Curriculum for Waste
Management
• Collected data, policy information and technical knowledge gained through above activities
will be provided to IETC as the contribution to its Waste Management Knowledge-hub.
Centre will provide case study materials for the curriculum IETC plans to develop in
collaboration with Kyoto University, Asian Institute of Technology (Thailand), Tongji University
(China), TERI University (India), and University of New South Wales (Australia). The Centre will
also conduct workshops.

３．Supporting IETC’s Outreach
• In order to support IETC’s outreach effort to relevant stakeholders in Japan, the Centre will
provide assistance through organizing its own event(s) in Japan, setting-up exhibition booth in
relevant events, engage in publicity, organizing websites, and providing Japanese contents.
• The Agreement between UNEP and IGES stipulates that CCET can also engage in projects
partly or entirely financed by external funding, in addition to the projects mandated by the
above Project Cooperation Agreement (PCA). The Center will also seek the possibility of
conducting projects financed by government agencies, development assistance institutions,
international organizations and private parties.
