Led by Dr. Angeliki Balayanis, this 18-month project delved into the impacts of COVID-19 on the waste sector and its responses. In partnership with local authorities and industry associations, it aimed to examine and address hazards related to waste management. The project generated critical data on changing processes in waste management, including collections, disposal, and administration. It also designed a Pandemic Toolkit with workers to guide action and decision-making, and produced an Industry Report to support an evidence-based response to the pandemic and build future preparedness. My role involved developing novel visualisation methods and tools to better understand the sector.Â
