Monrovia – Cities Alliance, a nongovernmental organization, has disclosed plans to intervene in the wastes management sector of Liberia by giving the cities of Monrovia and Paynesville a facelift. The meeting was also intended to diversify solid wastes management services and increase service provision to greater Monrovia population within the cities of Paynesville and Monrovia. The study is one of the first steps toward developing a model on how to expand, modernize and make efficient, services of solid wastes management provided by community-based Enterprises within the cities of Monrovia and Paynesville respectively. Cities Alliance Liberia Program Manager Francisco J. Lopez said Cities Alliance Liberia is currently implementing an EU-funded project, Delivering Climate-Resilient Solid Waste Management Services in Greater Monrovia through Community-Based Enterprise. “This project builds upon the experiences of the Improved Primary Wastes Collection in Poor Communities project which established and trained CBEs and Community Management Teams (CMTs),” he said.
