The major theme of this study is the management of solid waste in the Fiji Islands, a Small Island Developing State situated in the South Pacific region. In this study, the management of solid waste (SW) is approached with a holistic perspective: it not only refers to the collection and the disposal of SW in municipal councils, but it also deals with some necessary preventative strategies like SW prevention, re-use, recycling and recovery.
