Maldives

Muli is one of the 9 inhabited islands in Meemu atoll in the central Maldives. Like almost all island of Maldives, the Muli island is also vulnerable to environmental and economic development variables such as waste management, rising sea level, coastal erosion, pollution/depletion of groundwater. Traditionally, food waste is generally disposed to the shoreline while other organic waste was burnt in open fire and were seen as manageable in the context of a small community.
