Decision Support System for the Mitigation and Adaptation of Waste in DR Congo
Authors: ,
Abstract: Addressing climate change involves mitigation (reducing emissions) and adaptation (preparing for unavoidable consequences). Our study focuses on the waste sector in DR Congo, which is characterized by an increase in emissions attributable to 1) the evacuation of solid waste of all kinds generated by households, communities and businesses and 2) the discharge of domestic wastewater. The paper proposes a model of decision support system that will monitor the mitigation and adaptation strategies concerning the waste sector. Our system aims to provide a sustainable waste management that can lead to reduction of the GHG emissions. Such a system can help stakeholders to be efficient in their mission.
