This joint CR&DALL and Waste Stories Briefing Paper argues that we need to cultivate waste literacies – capacities to read and make meaning from signs and symbols relating to waste – if we are to navigate a path out of the current Waste Age. It puts forward three different ways that literacies allow learning and meaning-making, and gives examples of what waste literacies might look like in practice.
Finally, it addresses the question of where responsibility and opportunities for developing waste literacies might lie.
