Overview

Local authorities and community groups in the Netherlands and Belgium are implementing various initiatives to improve waste management and combat littering.

In the Maashorst municipality, efforts to increase transparency regarding waste processing include a scheduled tour of the Van Kaathoven facility in Uden. Meanwhile, in Genk, Belgium, community-led cleanup efforts are being bolstered by local volunteers and support from the KRC Genk football club in preparation for World Cleanup Day.
