The principle objective of the present work is to analyze the situation of the collection of solid waste along University Avenue in the district of Comas, Lima, as well as the opinions of the main actors involved in this collection in order to suggest improvements to the service. This study is motivated by the pollution to which the road and the district are exposed due to the abundant presence of residential, commercial and construction solid waste. In addition, this research considers the problems resulting from the neoliberal policy installed in the district, in which the private companies hired to support the collection of waste, do not offer a quality service, related continuous conflicts with the municipal government of Comas. The possibility of a joint collection of solid waste, between the municipal government of the district and the informal collectors present in the University Avenue area, was suggested based field observation, characterization of solid waste, analysis of the Municipal Solid Waste Management Plan of Comas, and also by the research methodology based on the application of descriptive and semi-structured interviews. Based on the opinions and perspectives of the three groups of people interviewed (informal collectors present in the University Avenue, municipal agents and residents near the points where there is more garbage on the avenue), this project analyses whether a joint collection possibility would be a valid solution to the solid waste problem. In addition, this investigation suggests some projects that could help demonstrate that cooperation between the Municipality and the informal collectors could be a good alternative. In conclution, this thesis argues that the possible association of formal (Municipality of Comas) and informal actors (informal collectors) would be beneficial not only for the image of University Avenue, also for the Municipality, but also for the residents living near the avenue and for informal collectors. This collaboration would entail potential benefits that together would make the University Avenue and the district of Comas look like decontaminated urban spaces.
