Course content: The theme of the course is reuse of waste considered products. Informal activities in the realm of transport to Poland and selling of used goods will be analysed. Both social, economic and environmental aspects will be considered. The development of centres and chains for reuse wils be discussed, thereby touching various aspects as the legal situation, method of collection, organisational aspects, preparation for reuse, repair and control as well as possibilities for development. The planning of reuse corners within civic amenity sites well also be discussed.
