WALGA has developed a Better Practice Guideline for Waste Management for Public Events to support Local Governments in hosting or organising low waste events.
WALGA’s Better Practice Guideline includes:
- An action checklist: A detailed checklist of actions to be taken before, during and after the event to ensure effective waste management.
- Information on waste avoidance and reusables: The Guideline focuses on waste avoidance as the first approach, followed by promoting reusable items to minimise waste generation.
- Staffed Waste Stations: The Guideline encourages the use of staffed waste stations, where possible, to ensure correct sorting and disposal of waste.
- Case Studies and Templates: The Guideline includes practical case studies and templates that Local Governments can utilise.
