It’s now Swachh Technology Challenge for Mysureans
The Hindu
Ideas invited on the themes of social inclusion, zero dump, plastic waste management, and transparency
Here’s an opportunity for the people of Mysuru, companies, institutions, NGOs and others to suggest innovative ideas/solutions under Swachh Technology Challenge as a part of the Swachh Survekshan-2022.
Swachha Technology Challenge, which was launched recently under Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban 2.0 (SBM-U 2.0) by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), is looking for solutions in four categories - social inclusion, zero dump (solid waste management), plastic waste management, and transparency through digital enablement.
According to MoHUA, the initiative aims at attracting innovations in waste management and establishing an environment that fulfills the vision of SBM-U 2.0. The Ministry has been encouraging innovations and best practices through Swachh Survekshan, the annual cleanliness survey, which has attracted a large number of innovations and best practices since the last four years.
