dc.description.abstractWaste pickers from the Bokk Diom organisation, working at Dakar’s Mbeubeuss landfill – in Senegal’s capital city –, continued to provide essential waste management services throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, contributing to public health, reducing environmental harm, and mitigating greenhouse gases. As with many, their incomes were impacted by the pandemic, especially those of women. However, the greatest threat to their incomes and livelihoods is the transformation of the waste management system, a process which they are excluded from. Drawing on research carried out with Women in Informal Employment: Globalizing and Organizing (WIEGO) during the pandemic, Bokk Diom was able to advocate on behalf of waste pickers and obtain pledges of inclusion in solid waste management (SWM) from national authorities. Bokk Diom and WIEGO are continuing in their efforts to attain a just transition for waste pickers.en
dc.description.abstractLes récupérateur·trice·s de déchets de l’organisation Bokk Diom travaillant à la décharge de Mbeubeuss de Dakar, dans la capital du Sénégal, ont fourni des services essentiels de gestion des déchets pendant la pandémie de la Covid-19, contribuant à la santé publique, la réduction des impacts environnementaux et à l’atténuation des gaz à effet de serre. Comme pour beaucoup, leurs revenus ont été affectés par la pandémie, en particulier pour les femmes. Mais la plus grande menace pour leurs revenus et leurs moyens de subsistance est la transformation du système de gestion des déchets, qui ne les inclut pas. En s’appuyant sur les résultats de la recherche menée avec Femmes dans l’Emploi Informel : Globalisation et Organisation (WIEGO) pendant la pandémie, Bokk Diom a été capable de plaider en faveur des récupérateur·trice·s et obtenir des autorités nationales des promesses d’inclusion dans la gestion des déchets solides (GDS). Bokk Diom et WIEGO continuent avec leurs efforts pour aboutir à une transition juste pour les récupérateur·trice·s.fr
