Recycling Guatemala

Recycling Guatemala is a project that aims to develop a waste management system in Almolonga, a small agricultural village in the western highlands of Guatemala. The project started April 1st 2002 and will be finished by February 10th 2003.

The project web (these pages) present our main strategies, focuses, and, as we go along, the results and conclusions of the project. The pages also contain a section about Guatemala in general, and, for those of you visiting not only for professional reasons, a section on life beyond work. Enjoy!
