Pay As You Throw (PAYT) and Know As You Throw (KAYT) models are important pieces of the puzzle called waste management. They are finding their way to becoming a part of local policies for the last several years with many more local and regional authorities considering their implementation. In case your local or regional authority is one of them, you are at the right place. This reTHINKwaste Tutor will guide you through a self-assessment process for identifying strengths and weaknesses, and suggest you the first steps to be taken.
Sustainable waste management can be severely hindered if different stakeholders don't act responsibly and don't cooperate appropriately. Local authorities can stimulate changes in citizens' behaviours by introducing dynamic waste tariff systems based on the PAYT principle and by applying the so-called "nudge" theory where citizens adopt a more responsible behaviour in response to positive support and indirect help or suggestions ? something that the innovative KAYT approach is based on.
