Zero Waste International Alliance

ZWIA was established in January 2003 to help network and support the growing number of Zero Waste campaigns around the world.

ZWIA plays a key role in developing international standards and benchmarks to protect the integrity of the Zero Waste ’brand’, which is coming under increasing threat from misuse.

ZWIA is established in New Zealand on behalf of Zero Waste International members including representatives from the UK, USA, Australia, Canada, Egypt, Scandinavia, Taiwan, India and Italy.

Recently, ZWIA had a productive session in San Francisco and agreed to adopt a more inclusive organising approach, based on the success of GAIA and Health Care without Harm..
