These grants, co-financed by the European Union, the Xunta de Galicia, and the European Regional Development Fund, aim to expand municipal waste management capacity. The intended outcome is an increase in the amount of waste that citizens selectively collect.
A key initiative is the separate collection of biowaste. The Council encourages residents to request their 'brown bin' to contribute to transforming organic waste into compost. This practice seeks to reduce the overall volume of garbage and protect the environment.
The initiative is part of sustainability and circular economy strategies, supported by European and regional funds, including the Xacobeo 2027 program.
