During October 10-11, 2023, AO AE Pro-Mediu, in collaboration with the Ministry of the Environment, organizes training programes for administrators of Environmental Agency and Environment Protection Inspection to maintain and for producers under EPR. The events are organized in the frames of the project “Reducing the environmental impact of plastic waste in border areas in Moldova”
The aim of the events was to present and discuss with the participants the reporting of data on packaging and management of packaging waste, according to Law no. 209/2016 on waste and Regulation on packaging and packaging waste, approved by Government Decision no. 561/2020. The event was also an opportunity to address the legal proposal to regulate the placing on market of single-use plastic products, which promotes circular approaches that give priority to sustainable and non-toxic re-usable products and re-use systems rather than to single-use products, aiming first and foremost to reduce the quantity of waste generated. Such waste prevention is at the pinnacle of the waste hierarchy enshrined in the Waste Law no. 209/2016.
