SWANA, First Nations Join Forces to Eliminate Waste

摘要

Less than two years ago, Alda Nicmans, Emily Chu from In.tent Planning, and a few others attending the 2014 Coast Waste Management Association conference, came up with an idea. While the INAC had been converting rural and remote First Nations landfills and dumps to modern waste management systems, people who worked in the new facilities had no formal training. Nicmans, executive director of the Pacific Chapter of the Solid Waste Association of North America, could see that SWANA was the right organization to deliver the needed training.
