The Taita Taveta government has partnered with the Taka Taka ni Mali Foundation to recycle waste in a way that creates employment. The project, spearheaded by the County Waste Management and Entrepreneurship Hub, aims to link waste pickers to waste users and recyclers to enhance resource efficiency. A Waste Management Hub will be established to ensure a cleaner environment and resource management with maximised efficiency. Once rolled out, there will be a structured programme of managing waste by setting up a dumpsite that will manage waste centrally. She asked the private sector to partner with the county to spur the economic state of the region through waste management and recycling.
