Project description

Waste management is one of the most pressing issues for the Republic of Kazakhstan, as currently the amount of waste is significantly increasing. There are systemic problems in creating waste management infrastructure, and the lack of qualified specialists. Another serious problem for the agricultural regions of Kazakhstan is the management of agricultural waste, since this area is not taken into account even by the existing legislation.
