The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the state of waste management and the learning needs of adult learners in Croatia, Slovenia, and North Macedonia. The desk research conducted examines waste management systems in the European context, legislative frameworks, public awareness initiatives, practices in household waste management, approaches to sustainable waste management, impacts of waste on the environment and health, and best practices and innovations in waste management technology. The survey of adult learners offers insights into their awareness levels, environmentally conscious practices, learning interests, preferred learning styles, motivations, and perceived barriers related to environmental education opportunities. The report serves as a foundation for the development of subsequent educational resources within the RAGT project.

The report was created as part of the Erasmus+ project "Raising Awareness for a Greener Tomorrow" (2023-1-HR01-KA210-ADU-000155794).
