What steps can you take for a zero waste city?

Interested in a study tour?

Book or charter a zero waste cities study tour

We organise regular study tours for city officials and administrators to best practice zero waste cities. These study tours give you the hands-on experience and knowledge that you need to implement zero waste plans in your city. Speak to experts and practitioners at all levels of zero waste practice to inform your zero waste masterplan. We have organised previous study tours to ‘best practice cities’ in Sardinia, Italy, the Basque Country, Spain, Flanders, Belgium and the zero waste municipalities of Northern Italy.

These study tours have taken participants to Michelin Star zero waste restaurants, best in class Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) and innovative reuse centres.

"This experience has been truly amazing: I could witness the whole cycle of waste management, from door to door separate collection to the waste treatment and the economic aspects. 10 years ago, the zero waste approach could have sound like a crazy dream to many of us working in this sector, but it is actually a vision that has pushed us in the right direction - the direction of waste reduction."
Michele Bernardini

"This zero waste tour has been extremely inspiring, as it showed that on a island, and in a Southern region with climatic constraints, it is possible to implement an advanced system of separate collection, including a strong focus on organic waste, and a door-to-door collection that makes it possible to save organics from incineration and landfilling. We hope we will be able to replicate this on the mainland."

"The Zero Waste Tour was very well thought out, because Sardinia is very close to Corsica and there are many experiences we can draw inspiration from."
