The International Waste Working Group was set up in 2002 to serve as a forum for the scientific and professional community and to answer a need for the international promotion and dissemination of developments in the waste management industry.
The IWWG aims to provide an intellectual platform to encourage and support integrated and sustainable waste management and to promote practical scientific development in the field.
The group was conceived as a think-tank, whose work would be based on scientific principles oriented towards practical applications. The IWWG is structured in such a way as to allow it to focus on a range of subjects, to react promptly to problems in the field, and to communicate efficiently within the professional community.

The IWWG is a registered not-for-profit organisation, managed by a Board and assisted by an International Scientific Advisory Committee. IWWG Members automatically become Subscribers to Waste Management, the official journal of IWWG. IWWG runs the following Task Groups on a range of topics, with the aim of co-ordinating interdisciplinary research on these topics and discussing and disseminating related results.
