Sammanfattning
This report assesses GHG savings and social and economic impacts of innovative strategies developed and piloted within the Urban Waste project. The strategies or pilot measures were implemented in eleven cities over a time period of 4‐6 months starting in May‐June and ending in October November 2018. All cities implemented between 3 to 5 pilot measures. The assessment of GHG savings followed the Life Cycle Assessment approach (ISO 14044).The goal of the assessment is to provide qualitative data that show how waste prevention and improved waste management practices employed in the selected pilot cities have performed in comparison to the (status quo) activities.All pilot measures achieved a saving in greenhouse gas emissions compared to the situation before the implementation of the measure. The time frame for which changes were measured and reported differed between the pilot measures. For comparability reasons reported data was normalised to one year.The social impact assessments in this deliverable were based on working hours, employment, job satisfaction, training and work meaningfulness within the stakeholder categories workers and managers. The economic impact was assessed on the basis of costs related to the implementation of the individual measures in terms of material and equipment costs as well as cost savings opportunities.
