The partnership between GLEDCO cooperative and the City of Laoag has led to successful implementation of an integrated solid waste management program. Through their agreement, they have increased waste reduction to 85%, raised community awareness, and created jobs for waste pickers. The program sorts waste into biodegradable, recyclable, and residual streams. Biodegradable waste is turned into organic fertilizer, while recyclables are recovered. This public-private partnership has reduced waste management costs for the city while also generating income from compost and concrete product sales. Strong support from both the cooperative and local government have been keys to the effective waste management program.
For 2012 the UN focuses on cooperatives “because cooperative enterprises contribute to reducing poverty for many families and communities”.
