By on March 01, 2013

Chronicles of a Fight for Inclusion is a series of audiovisual materials that seeks to record and provide information about the process of inclusion of waste pickers into the waste management system in Bogota at the local level, and in Colombia at the national level.

 

The series includes short videos —with information on waste pickers´ situations and their claims, as well as education materials— that WIEGO has produced to disseminate how this process of inclusion has taken place in order to reach out to every municipality in Colombia and to all waste pickers in the world interested in knowing more about this experience.
