Dhahiriya Municipality Continues Implementing the Cardboard Recycling Project in Partnership with Germany’s Enzkreis District
Dhahiriya Municipality continues implementing its cardboard recycling project as part of its ongoing efforts to protect the environment, reduce waste accumulation, and promote environmental sustainability throughout the city.
The project involves the Municipality’s Health Department teams placing designated cardboard collection bins along the main street, collecting cardboard waste, and transporting it to a designated sorting and baling facility. There, the cardboard is compressed using a hydraulic baler in preparation for recycling and reuse.
The project is implemented under the Middle East–German Municipal Partnerships Programme, carried out by the Service Agency Communities in One World (SKEW), in cooperation with the Local Governance Reform Project implemented by the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), and funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
Dhahiriya Municipality is implementing this initiative in partnership with Germany’s Enzkreis District. The project is considered one of the pioneering initiatives in Palestine, contributing to improved waste management, encouraging recycling practices, and enhancing the city's environmental conditions and urban appearance.
Dhahiriya Municipality calls upon residents and business owners to cooperate with municipal teams by placing cardboard waste in the designated collection bins, contributing to the project's success and helping maintain a cleaner and healthier city.
Together Towards a Cleaner and More Beautiful Dhahiriya.
