Abstract
This Roadmap is the final output of the CTCN Technical Assistance study on circular economy in household waste management in Zimbabwe. During this study, a baseline assessment for the current waste system was conducted, looking at plastics, paper, metal, glass, household organic waste and (small scale) agricultural waste. This was followed by a comparative analysis per waste stream on the potential to move towards higher levels of circularity. After a physical stakeholder consultation in Harare, October 2021 the choice was made to focus on organic waste for the remainder of the project. Following this specification, a more detailed analysis was conducted on the current status of Zimbabwe’s organic waste management system, looking at technology use, the policy and regulatory landscape and current markets and value chains on organic (waste) management. These three outputs combined (the baseline assessment, the comparative analysis and the organics deep dive) have made it possible to determine the most pressing challenges and gaps in Zimbabwe in relation to sustainable and circular organic (waste) management. Additional literature and other Roadmaps have been assessed complementarily. As a result, this document is designed to provide recommendations and suggestions for change.
