Training modules in health-care waste management
A series of training modules on good practices in health-care waste management have been created as part of the Global Health-care Waste Project jointly sponsored by UNDP, the Global Environment Facility, WHO, Health-care Without Harm and the University of Illinois School of Public Health. Links are provided to the individual modules covering all aspects of waste management activities from identification and classification of wastes to considerations guiding their safe disposal using both non-incineration or incineration strategies. Modules 9 and 10 on the classification and segregation of health-care waste also have instructor and student guides.
