A survey by UNDP Accelerator Lab, Ghana

Survey by UNDP Accelerator Lab in Ghana on recycling reveals 41% segregates their waste, but the majority do not, mainly because they do not know who will collect the segregated waste (16%).  Only 10% of respondents said they would only recycle if they were paid to, but many suggested incentives including pay-back or points-redemption, to cultivate and sustain segregation habits. Headline results are in this infographic
