Monitoring and Evaluation of waste prevention activities in Selected Groups

According to Waste Framework Directive (directive 2008/98/EC), waste prevention are the measures taken before a substance, material or product has become waste, that reduce the quantity of waste, the adverse impacts of the generated waste on environmental and human health or the content of harmful substances.

The European framework directive on waste requires national waste prevention programmes to be drawn up. Additionally, according to Zorpas and Lasaridi, waste prevention is a very personal behaviour, which often goes undetectable (e.g. when shopping) or out of the sight of others (at home), so that there is no descriptive social norm to support it. Waste prevention is performed in the privacy of our own home and is personal as it is driven by deeply held beliefs and attitudes rather than social norms. However monitoring and evaluation of waste prevention activities is critical, as is the main reason to enable policy makers, local authorities and exper ts to build their strategic plans, as they can measure and ensure that waste prevention initiatives are being effective and delivering behavior change. This paper examined the behaviour of waste prevention regarding several streams like food waste, waste that can be composted, re use of plastic bottles in several targets groups in Municipality of Paralimni which took part in a LIFE+ project (WASP TOOL).
