Zero Waste International Alliance

The Zero Waste International Alliance (ZWIA) is an organization that promotes sustainable waste management practices aimed at minimizing waste to landfill. Founded in 2004, ZWIA provides guidance and frameworks for communities and businesses to adopt "zero waste" goals, focusing on reducing, reusing, and recycling materials. It advocates for policies and practices that encourage resource efficiency and environmental responsibility. By fostering collaboration and sharing best practices globally, the ZWIA aims to inspire a circular economy where materials are continuously reused, ultimately reducing the environmental impact associated with waste disposal.
