In the early 90's solid waste issue was pointed out as one of the main problems to be tackled in the national sanitation sector. There have been some efforts towards more sustainable practices in this area. However, little information has been produced in order to draw the current and future scenario of waste management with in the economic, environmental, social and institutional areas. Indicators are instruments of information that should be used extensively in Hence, it follows there are still many streamlined indicators to come up with in order to assist the formulation process of an integrated waste system for the country as well as to acess its efficiency towards sustainability. The purpose of this research work is to analyse and assess indicators availabe in Brazilian waste sector, recommend improvements in dataquality; and reflect on a broad range of indicators for integrated urban waste system, in order to come up with a set of streamlined indicators to attend current and future demands. ) This paper is part of an on going research work carried out by Siades - Environmental Information System for Sustainable Debelopment Research Programme at University of São Paulo - School of Public Health.
