Salvador recycling project presented at international workshop in Japan

The RODA recycling project, an initiative based in the Historic Center of Salvador, Brazil, was presented at an international workshop in Osaka, Japan. The project focuses on door-to-door recyclable collection using electric vehicles to simplify waste disposal for local establishments.

Developed by the startup SOLOS in partnership with the Salvador City Hall and several municipal agencies, the initiative also involves the Cooperativa de Reciclagem União (CRUN). In its first year of operation, the RODA project collected more than 100 tons of recyclable materials, connecting businesses, cooperatives, and public authorities to expand selective waste collection in the region.
