3. Approach to Planning: addresses the goal of waste management in rural areas, units of planning, importance of phasing and criteria that can be used to select pilot Gram Panchayats (GPs).
4. Institutional Options: provides guidance on institutional arrangements for planning and implementing a waste management program in rural areas.
5. Community Mobilization: focuses on scaling up a participatory approach to waste management.
6. Technology Options: outlines the principles that can be adopted while selecting an option.
7. Financing, Incentives and Monitoring: addresses sources of funding for capital and operational costs, and looks into how a solid and liquid waste management program can be monitored at district and GP levels.
