This project aims to reduce the transmission risk of the COVID-19 pandemic and other infectious diseases in Maldives. This project contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by disposing of the newly sanitized waste through the regular waste management system rather than incinerating it. Project activities include: (1) procuring approximately 40 autoclaves, which sanitize medical waste; (2) installing the autoclaves in medical facilities across ten island atolls; and (3) providing training to staff in medical facilities on the use and maintenance of autoclaves. This project expects to directly benefit healthcare workers and patients by reducing the risk of transmission of COVID-19 and other diseases by providing a safe way to sanitize medical waste.
