They disseminated information on cleaner production by serving as an information clearing house, publishing newsletters and holding marketing seminars in order to increase awareness. [Pg.15]

They conducted sectoral and cross-sectoral in-plant demonstrations of cleaner production to show the potential of waste minimization in the country. [Pg.15]

They trained in-plant personnel and consulting engineers on how to conduct waste reduction audits in order to increase the in-country capacity for such activities. [Pg.15]

They prepared and distributed country-specific technical reports (a waste audit manual in the appropriate language, sector-specific guidelines and fact sheets) to allow factories interested in cleaner production to pursue relevant activities on their own. [Pg.15]
