From Matthias Kopp / Deutsche Welle: Albina Ruiz, founder of the social enterprise Ciudad Saludable, works with people living in areas dominated by the trash dump to create a more formal system of waste removal for their health and the wider city’s cleanliness.

At the same time their efforts to clean up the city are working well, and the model is spreading to other Peruvian cities.
