HWM BMWM

Hazardous & Biomedical Waste Management & Municipal Solid Waste Management:

Waste management initiatives at CEE started in 1989 when it, along with other organisations, participated in a forum called the Committee for Clean Bangalore. Over the last few years, proper management of biomedical waste has emerged as a major focus of CEE's activities. Initiatives include, on the one hand, awareness raising, orientation and training programmes, and, on the other, establishment of a common facility for biomedical waste treatment and disposal.

The major purpose to undertake HWM BMWM Project is to initiate Training programmes on Hazardous & Biomedical Waste Management & Municipal Solid Waste Management.

The Waste and Resource Management Group organised the three rounds of training of trainer’s workshops on Bio-medical Waste Management and Occupational Health Hazards, a project supported by Hazardous Substances Management Division (HSMD) of MoEF, Government of India.
