Abstract: The report "Best Practices in Organics Diversion in Multi-Residential Buildings" provides a comprehensive review of strategies to improve organic waste diversion in high-density living environments such as apartment complexes and condominiums. The report identifies key challenges, including space constraints, resident education, and infrastructure limitations, which hinder efficient waste separation. Through a detailed analysis, it presents best practices in education, infrastructure, community engagement, and policy frameworks. Key recommendations emphasize the importance of resident education through workshops, clear signage, and the distribution of welcome kits. The report also advocates for infrastructure improvements, such as convenient bin placements, appropriate bin sizes, and space optimization. Additionally, community engagement is highlighted, with the formation of resident committees and the use of recognition and reward programs as effective methods to increase participation.
