The Workshop was held at a time when consideration was being given to the important issue of "solid waste management for the health of the inhabitants of the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean Region, and its impact on the environment." Dr. Theodore-Gandi, PAHO's Country Representative in Guyana noted that "there was a deficiency of reliable information on the state of the art of solid waste management in all countries, especially in Latin America and the Caribbean" and that the current evaluation "would make possible the identification of problems and deficiencies in municipal solid waste management, compare the progress made, redistribute the resources adequately, and disseminate innovative and low-cost solutions that have proven successful in the countries of theRegion".
