waste-less-arugam-bay
Waste Less Arugam Bay (WLAB) is an intervention into the booming coastal tourist destination of Arugam Bay in the Eastern Province of Sri Lanka. Our partnership with Development International Group (DIG) and the USAID Municipal Waste Recycling Program is a unique opportunity to not only establish a waste segregation system for plastics but also implement a new identity of Arugam Bay as a sustainable/green tourist destination. As a principle, the whole WLAB setup is housed in repurposed shipping containers to be easily moveable or reproducible. Proven a success the concept could be easily moved and/or reproduced in any tourist destination in Sri Lanka where the demand for waste management through tourism industry diminishes the waste management provided for local population, leading to illegal dumping and/or burning, both a short and long term health hazard.
