The LIFE SMART Waste project – Smarter Regulation of Waste in Europe – is an innovative pan-European partnership between key bodies involved with addressing waste crime.
The project is funded under the LIFE+ programme and it runs from June 2014 until May 2020.
Highlights
Law enforcement agencies now have the possibility to use new detection and collaboration tools and techniques, designed and piloted by LIFE SMART Waste, in their fight against waste crime. The project also produced a summary of tactical opportunities identified for environmental regulators and recommendations for policy and legislative change at regional, UK and EU level.
THE PROJECT
The goal of the LIFE SMART Waste project is to demonstrate innovative ways of understanding, tackling and reducing waste-related crime.
LIFE SMART Waste will:
- Develop innovative intelligence gathering and analytical approaches to identify and understand significant waste crime issues (current and future) associated with “challenging” waste streams, problem waste operators and illegal waste activities;
- Target the environmental, social and economic problems created by waste crime;
- Analyse and report on the difficulties that enforcement agencies face in identifying, understanding and tackling waste crime;
- Develop new and innovative ways of working to ultimately reduce the impact of waste crime in European states.
