About Republic of Togo
Togo is currently in deficit for the controlled treatment of household and similar waste.
The waste is currently deposited on unauthorized plots near cities. The populations including young children then frequent these landfills to find waste recoverable.
These wild dumps pose an epidemiological risk for the populations (inhalation and ingestion of dust and bacteria) and an environmental risk (pollution of water from streams, water made non-potable in wells). Waste arrives from all sides without control. You can find cans or drums. In lack of solutions, waste is no longer collected and accumulates on the streets.
