Together for a Better Society is a joint initiative of municipal waste companies in Slovenia for promoting sustainability, responsible consumerism and the preservation of natural resources. The Initiative was formed by the Chamber of Local Public Economy and today counts more than 40 waste management companies in Slovenia.
The main goals of the Initiative are:
– promote waste prevention, reuse and responsible consumption;
– reduce the amount of food waste and change our attitude toward food so that we would waste less food and value it more;
– promote drinking of tap water and spread the awareness on how we can contribute to its quality;
– promote critical and ethical consumption and a sustainable use of resources.

The crucial aim of the initiative is, not only raising the awareness of the general public but also to form a strong alliance of stakeholders (waste management companies, municipalities, educational institutions, NGO’s) that exchange good practices and attain to achieve legislative and systemic change in the waste and resources management.
