Kumasi

Urban waste is one the largest problems in developing countries. Some time ago I wrote a study together with Katja Martins and Audrey Sluiter, about how to deal with this problem. As a case they take the city of Kumasi, Ghana. With a population of 1,517,000, Kumasi is the second-largest city in the country.It is located near the Lake Bosomtwe, in the Rain Forest Region about 250 km (by road) northwest of Accra. Kumasi is approximately 300 miles north of the Equator and 100 miles north of the Gulf of Guinea. It is popularly known as "The Garden City" because of its many beautiful species of flowers and plants.
