Observatoire Régional des Déchets (ORDIF)

ORDIF is a non-profit association founded in 1992 by the Île-de-France Regional Council (Paris Region) and the State. It brings together most of the regional waste stakeholders (regional & local authorities, private companies, NGOs, representatives of waste producers…) and has 3 main missions. The first one is to monitor waste prevention and management in the Region, e.g. by producing yearly reports on collection and treatment. Within the second mission, ORDIF focuses also on disseminating waste-related information to its members and regional stakeholders. Furthermore, ORDIF promotes exchanges among its members by organizing frequent conferences about the main challenges linked to waste management.
