Recycling Bicycle Cart

Social innovation in focus:

The Recycling Bicycle Cart was developed as part of a co-creation process to improve mobility in the solid waste recollection system, especially the working conditions and lives of waste pickers in urban areas of Latin America.

This low-cost technology has brought together local innovators, waste pickers and local authorities with the aim of strengthening the social inclusion of the most vulnerable group in society.
