In early 2010, the SWEEP-Net secretariat has made a regional assessment and gathered information on SWM in the MENA region. Nine country reports and one consolidated country report on the SWM situation in the MENA region were prepared with the participation of regional and national SWM consultants and specialists and in close cooperation with the ministries and agencies in charge of the SWM sector in the partner countries.
The objective was to assess the SWM situation in the countries and the region and identify the main challenges and opportunities for cooperation in this field.
