Japan formalises assistance for Nauru waste segregation project

His Excellency President Baron Waqa signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Japan Ambassador Takuji Hanatani formalising a waste segregation, today 20 February.

 
The Government of Japan will provide assistance under the Grant Assistance for Grassroots Human Security Projects (GGP) program worth AUD$64,275 to Nauru's Department of Commerce, Industry and Environment (CIE) as the agency responsible for overseeing the management of the project.
 
President Waqa signed the MOU in his capacity as Minister for CIE while earlier this afternoon, acting Secretary for CIE Mavis Depaune signed the agreement on behalf of CIE as the responsible agency.
 
The funds will go towards the effective segregation of waste as well as the construction of a waste segregation facility and provision of a glass crusher, can baler, two trailers and 1000 woven polypropylene bags.
 
Nauru is facing waste management challenges as household waste and various other waste products are dumped at the island's dump site without further processing.
 
The Nauru Rehabilitation Corporation has tried to segregate recyclable products but have found it difficult to do so.
 
The implementation of the waste segregation project will enable the Department of CIE to provide Nauruans with a safer and more sanitary environment with appropriate waste management facilities.
 
The GGP program is part of the overall Japanese ODA implemented by the Embassy of Japan in order to empower the people from the grassroots level. The GGP program in Nauru has been implemented in areas such as water supply, transportation and fishery since 2006. To date, about 15 projects have been implemented under the GGP program which amount to an approximate value of USD1.3-million.
