Helpdesk: Supporting officials and professionals with EPR implementation in Mauritius

In July 2024, Government officials and professionals involved in environmental policy and/or waste management from Mauritius joined us in three consultation sessions. The trainings allowed us to give tailored advice and answer questions for EPR implementation in Mauritius specifically.

In an alignment call, our Helpdesk experts and the participants agreed on topics of interests and arranged the following sessions:

 

  • Session one: Scope and design of an EPR system for packaging
  • Session two: Building up deposit-refund-systems and its differences to an EPR system for general packaging & Basics on EPR for fishing gear
  • Session three: Scope and design of an EPR system for waste of electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)

 

Offering tailored support

Each session consisted of a 30-minute presentation on the session’s main topic and an interactive 90-minute discussion on the content between participants and experts. Participants could also hand in questions on EPR in Mauritius beforehand and received Mauritius-tailored answers during the calls.

Beneficiaries of this training were government officials and professionals involved in environmental policy and/or waste management specifically from Mauritius.
