In “Order 275, dating from 2011,” a lead waste picker interviews two high-level officials, who explain the content of the constitutional court´s Order 275 and the implications it has for waste pickers in Colombia.

 

 

Video is in Spanish.

 

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.
