Q.
Are the garbage dump communities like the ones CAM serves exclusively from Central America?
A. No. Unfortunately it is a global problem than can be found in the majority of the developing countries. As an example, in the Philippines more than 12,000 people live in severe poverty at the Payatas garbage dump. In Egypt, there is big community of people who work and live in what is
locally known in Cairo as garbage city. And this community is even bigger that the one in the Philippines.
