This paper resumes the principals results obtained by the grant EUROPEAID/126635/M/ACT/CR”, that was realized by FUNDATEC, and whose beneficiary was the “Federación de Municipalidades de Cartago, Costa Rica”, the Project received a funding of 74,920 euros. We work with all the Municipalities of the Cartago Province. In addition, we show the results of the interviews of social actors, visits to the recycle sites, visits of municipalities, during the years 2010, 2011 and 2012, and the review of literature. We describe the actual situation of the management of solid waste in Cartago, determinate the generation rates by person and identified the principal landfill disposes, the recycle companies and determinate the main problems associated with the solid waste. It is hope that the information presented here, provides the basis for the future construction of plans of municipal solid waste management, and for the capacitation of community organization in the province of Cartago. |
