Project Description
Understanding waste management
Planit Waste learning simulation raises awareness of the serious waste management issues that are facing local areas.
Planit Waste focuses on improving long term decision making. It also helps partnership building. In particular between Local Authorities, Waste Collection Authorities (WCA) and Waste Disposal Authorities (WDA). Crucially, Planit-Waste is linked to the Landfill Allowance Trading Scheme (LATs) and focuses on improved waste performance.
6 teams are presented with reports and make/negotiate purchase decisions. The decisions are fed into an algorithm which updates the reports and score. The teams then make further decisions.
It helped me to understand more about ‘waste’ through visual learning rather than reports and meetings
Once we got started it was really easy to understand! Makes waste a bit more exciting…gives the whole picture without being dull!
Simple, fun way to look at a complex policy area.
