It includes their socio-economic condition, working environment and access to basic services. The study reveals that, despite the significant contribution of the waste pickers in the solid waste management system, their service is not recognized. This marginalized group is deprived of the basic human needs and leads a miserable life where the magnitude of risks and vulnerabilities are very high. The report emphasized on the importance of immediate attention of the policy makers to improve the livelihood condition of the waste pickers.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1m5ujyg9cWe4ob8vLHCXHKG-DWmgYAEoJ\/view?usp=sharing\" class=\"small-button smallblue\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">View Table of Contents<\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ITN-BUET conducted a research on the social aspect of solid waste management titled \u2018Waste Pickers\u2019 Livelihoods, their Vulnerability and Possible Measures to Overcome the Existing Condition\u2019 during 2008-09, an area which received very little attention previously for research within the domain of solid waste management.
