Logistics Cluster’s Environmental Sustainability Team, WREC Coalition

Coordinated by the Global Logistics Cluster, the Environmental Sustainability Team, WREC Coalition is a coalition of humanitarian organisations - the Danish Refugee Council (DRC), the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), Save the Children International and the World Food Programme of the United Nations - with input from all Logistics Cluster partners, other humanitarian clusters, the private sector, and academic partners.

Our Vision

By 2030, the humanitarian supply chain community will be aware of the sector’s environmental impact and are empowered to independently implement a coordinated, scalable, and sustainable approach to measure and reduce that impact.

The map highlights waste management and recycling infrastructure, best practices, and solarisation service providers 

Waste Management and Recycling Infrastructure by Country: The map shows the waste management and recycling infrastructure by country as identified by humanitarian partners (see Assessment Guidance for info on filling out an assessment, Templates, and guidance on using LogIE). The objective is to support informed waste management decisions by the humanitarian community by providing information about available waste management and recycling infrastructure (see how to find Waste value solutions). To add information or to ask questions, please contact us.

Best Practices on Environmental Sustainability Across the Humanitarian Supply Chain: The map highlights environmental sustainability initiatives across the supply chain implemented by humanitarian partners in various countries. These initiatives aim to inspire and guide other humanitarian actors in adopting similar practices. To contribute information or mapping from your country, or for any inquiries, please contact us.
