Project Characteristics and Results
Promoting Public Awareness of Global Environment
? Raising the awareness of the local community and the concerned parties to manage and treat solid waste. The technical and admin staff of the JCspd, the municipality related staff and local cooperatives were trained on solid waste management and biogas digester operation and maintenance. Some of the science and environmental teachers of the schools also received training and provided copies of the biogas digester publication for students to educate them about the system. One awareness workshops for the local community was held for JCspd staff attended by 7 members. Learning visits and exchange of experiences between the project staff and service councils in the south and north of the West Bank. Visits to the private sector (cows breeders) that produce biogas and use it as a goal to learn the techniques used and their economic feasibility
? About 700 coppies of the biogas digester brochure, were provided to the following representative bodies:
- Private sector companies.
- Cooperative Organization.
- Agricultural engineers.
- Schools students.
Policy Impact
The Ministry of Agriculture and Environmental Quality Authority were involved from the project begging. They were members in the project committee who approved the project workplan, Terms of References ?TOR?, monitoring and evaluation reports. In addition to that the committee provided guidance when necessary.
