Created in 1989 under Local Law 19, the MSWAB advances ideas, insights, and initiatives to achieve NYC’s Zero Waste x 2030 goal.
OUR AREA OF IMPACT
Working in partnership with SWABs in Brooklyn and Queens, our 38 members seek to achieve impact through three primary avenues:
Policy input (testimony, meetings, letters)
Thought leadership (recycling guides, public forums, outreach)
Grant-making (Community Composting and Reuse, Reduce and Repair grants)
We meet the the second Wednesday of every month, except in July and August. All meetings are open to the public. Committee meet monthly.
