IRRC: A pioneering solution
• An Integrated Resource Recovery Center (IRRC) is a recycling facility where a significant portion (80-90%) of waste can be processed in proximity to the source of generation, and in a decentralized manner. The IRRC concept is based on the reduce, reuse and recycle (3R) principles
• The Integrated Resource Recovery Center model was developed by Waste Concern, an NGO based in Dhaka
• The model is cost-effective, affordable, low-tech and community-based, and allows transforming waste into various types of resources

4 key areas of IRRC sustainability
![Page 18: Integrated Resource Recovery Center (IRRC) A model of pro-poor …. Rahul Teku... · 2017-12-11 · Rahul Teku Vaswani Consultant, ESCAP. ESCAP IRRC cities in 6 countries. IRRC: A](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060512/5f2a103f44311d219a08c44e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Building multi-stakeholder partnerships
• Success and sustainability of the IRRC depends on locally embedded partnerships between diverse stakeholders
Improving awareness and changing behavior
• Changing people’s perceptions and behaviors about waste segregation and management are essential; this takes time, resources, and sustained engagement
• Need to involve the informal waste sector in sustainable waste management
![Page 19: Integrated Resource Recovery Center (IRRC) A model of pro-poor …. Rahul Teku... · 2017-12-11 · Rahul Teku Vaswani Consultant, ESCAP. ESCAP IRRC cities in 6 countries. IRRC: A](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060512/5f2a103f44311d219a08c44e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Managing facilities and improving operations
• A business plan, careful resource accounting, and efficient plant operations are needed for financial resilience
• Collection and tipping fees are usually required to achieve cost-recovery
Creating an enabling environment for scaling up
• A successful pilot leads to successful, modular, scaling up• Policies for sustainable waste management must be sectorally integrated, as
well as vertically integrated with national priorities; a local legal framework or regulation for waste segregation, collection and management is necessary
• Private sector involvement must be leveraged; international climate financing can be leveraged
