MED4Waste (Mediterranean Dialogue for Waste Management Governance) is a Project ‎funded by the European Union, under the ENI CBC MED ‎programme. The programme is managed by the Autonomous Region of Sardinia (Italy) and aims ‎to facilitate new governance models for integrated & efficient urban waste management (WM) policies across the Mediterranean, with particular emphasis on organic waste & circular economy (CE).

2. Offering guidance and training for public administrations and relevant private and social stakeholders, to apply transferring actions and exploitation measures and to support planning, adapting, and readdressing of waste management plans, policies and other management actions and normative drivers (regulations, financial plans, service contracts)
