Environmental and sanitation initiatives in Oaxaca
Overview
In Oaxaca, Mexico, authorities and organizations are implementing various environmental and sanitation initiatives. In September 2026, the State Water Commission for Wellbeing (Ceabien) announced a sanitation plan for the final quarter of the year. This plan includes the launch of ten wastewater treatment plants in locations such as Puerto Escondido and Santa María Huatulco, alongside the construction of sanitary collectors to prevent sewage from discharging into the Atoyac River.
By October 2026, efforts expanded to include the Integrated Solid Urban Waste Revalorization System (SIRRSU) for the Oaxaca Metropolitan Area. This project involves operational transfer stations and the construction of biofertilizer facilities to transform organic waste. Concurrently, civil associations are working to protect the rights and safety of informal recyclers, known as ‘pepenadores’, to ensure they are recognized under new circular economy regulations.
