摘要

Chapter 12 concludes the report by synthesizing the findings and presenting a structured roadmap for the sustainable management of municipal solid waste (MSW) in Senegal. Recognizing the country’s low collection rates, high organic content in waste streams, and inadequate infrastructure—particularly the prominence of informal dumping sites such as Mbeubeuss—this chapter outlines a comprehensive multi-year strategy aimed at improving waste governance, minimizing environmental impacts, and fostering socio-economic benefits. Key strategic pillars include waste minimization at source, systematic collection upgrades, digitalization of the waste management system, establishment of centralized recycling and composting facilities, and the progressive transition from open dumpsites to engineered sanitary landfills. The action plan emphasizes phased implementation over a five-year period, supported by stakeholder engagement, policy reforms, financial mechanisms (including user fees and product sales), and targeted awareness campaigns. The proposed strategies underscore the importance of community participation, capacity building, and data transparency, paving the way for improved public health, environmental sustainability, and economic resilience. A detailed timeline in Table 32 presents the commencement, achievement, and continuation phases for each strategic component, providing a clear framework to guide national and local implementation efforts.
