[For Tokyo Municipalities]

Make Litter and Illegal Dumping Measures a Municipal System, Not One Person’s Job: Case Studies, New Methods and Subsidies

“Are you handling littering and illegal dumping all by yourself?”
Taking applications, answering inquiries, managing equipment, writing reports. In many municipalities, one staff member ends up doing it all.
This seminar introduces concrete ways to turn litter and illegal dumping measures from “one person’s job” into a “municipal system.”
We will also explain how to use the Tokyo Metropolitan Government subsidy (subsidy rate: 2/3).
