Hazardous chemical and biological waste have been detected in every country, and their management procedure.
The first phase of the project “Management of hazardous chemical and biological waste in the African Atlantic Façade region and Tunisia” is coming to a close after one year of work. The final event will be held in Dakar, Senegal, where a group of European experts will discuss the project with representatives of the Senegalese government. They will also make study visits to hospitals, laboratories and waste disposal facilities.
The second phase of the project will start in January, and training workshops on managing hazardous chemical and biological wastes are planned.
The project is financed by the European Union as part of the Centres of Excellence initiative, and will be executed in seven African Atlantic facade countries and Tunisia. International and Ibero-American Foundation for Administration and Public Policies (FIIAPP) is in charge of managing it
