GAM embarks on 2nd phase of waste collection, segregation project

AMMAN — The Greater Amman Municipality (GAM) has started the second phase of its Waste Collection and Segregation Project, launching an awareness campaign on waste management in the selected neighbourhoods.

Manager of the Environment Studies and Awareness Department at GAM Omar Arabiyat told The Jordan Times on Thursday that “Rawaq and Al Jarin neighbourhoods were selected, due to being densely populated”.

The first phase of the project was implemented back in 2019 in the Radwan neighbourhood, he noted, pointing out that the project utilises a circular economy to protect the climate and resources through waste segregation.
