Green Job Creation through Recycling and Upcycling in Pokhara Metropolitan City (GCRU)

About this project

The “Green Job Creation through Recycling and Upcycling in Pokhara Metropolitan City (GCRU) project” is designed to promote the green economy by establishing recycling/upcycling (RU) enterprises based on the circular economy model, in place of the current throw away approach, thereby increasing green jobs and reducing pollution and environmental impact of solid waste. This objective will be achieved through three interlinked areas of interventions – policy and coordination, promoting of RU enterprises, and empowering communities for increased awareness and community level RU initiatives.
