Abstract

The constant technological innovations in products and services increase consumption in society and consequently lead to socio-environmental and territorial problems in large urban centers. This article aims to investigate the structure of public policies for the management of urban solid waste (USW) in the city of Curitiba, focusing on the socio-economic inclusion of recyclable materials pickers. To understand the environmental dynamics and recycling chain processes, the methodology adopted in this article was a literature review using primary and secondary sources. To do so, a bibliographic survey was developed, based on different publications (theses, scientific articles, periodicals, among others) to gather information related to the subject. The results indicate the existence of policies that design possible actions focused on regional sustainability. Current policies in the state on reverse logistics of solid waste were identified, based on the incentive and inclusion of cooperatives in the USW management process, contributing to socially and economically inclusive local development.
