Component 6
Landfill Tax
Purpose
Disposal in landfills comes at the bottom of the EU’s “waste hierarchy”, below recovery (e.g., in the form of energy), reuse, recycling and (best of all) prevention. In view of this, Ukraine faces a significant challenge.
The aim with this component is to assist the Ukrainian government with the introduction of a landfill tax in Ukraine, leveraging European practices to make this an effective policy tool. This will involve sharing knowledge and adapting successful strategies from other countries to the Ukrainian context.
