Center of Waste Management (CWM) Abu Dhabi

The Emirate of Abu Dhabi will be recognised as a world leader in sustainable and integrated solid waste management. The Government of Abu Dhabi has set out its commitment to improving waste management across the Emirate by establishing the Center of Waste Management (CWM).

Established in December 2008, the Center is the lead agency responsible for controlling and coordinating waste management activities throughout the Emirate. This includes implementing the Waste Management Strategy and all aspects of service delivery required to establish a full cycle integrated waste management system.

The Center has been established to coordinate the policy, strategy and contractual systems of waste management across the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.

Existing agencies will continue in their roles of service monitoring, enforcement or delivery with the Center providing policy direction, systems analysis, and service /contractual requirements.
