Poll results
The identified barriers and possible focus areas were then aligned with a range of potential policy and market
solutions by means of an interactive poll, where participants were able to indicate their preferred mechanism
to address these challenges.
(...) In terms of the most preferred measures and incentives to support the development of recycling industries,
participants preferred legislation that provided incentives and clear definitions, thereafter showing an equal
preference for market interventions and manufacturing requirements favouring recycling.
(...) However, respondents also showed
almost the same preference for targeted technical assistance and capacity building, with trade liberalization
being the least preferred option.

Since access discovery and selection require both terminal and network parts to be involved, there are two distinct methods to exchange the details of access and user preferences. The principle to estimate a solution has two aspects: 1) cost: Is it less expensive? (...) For example, when a person enters a coffee shop, they may prefer free access. However, this kind of selection refers to user location where the access is deployed separately; only users can acquire the complete access list dynamically. (...) This Recommendation describes scenarios, requirements, unified registration solutions, and other aspects such as security and pricing for intelligent access selection in multi-connection.

On preferences, we would like to have an effective solution that takes on board the interest of the African Group. We also share the position of the ACP Group on preferences.
On domestic support, we urge the developed countries to take a leading role in ensuring that we achieve a substantial reduction in trade distorting domestic subsidies.
(...) Mr Chairman,
In NAMA, the African Group calls for a satisfactory outcome on flexibilities for developing countries, Preferences and Non-Tariff barriers. We also expect modalities that would address our concerns regarding sectoral initiatives.

Such finding makes incorporating cities as
an integral part of durable solutions a necessity.
A new report by Roberts and Okanya (2020) examines the living conditions of IDP migrants in
four Nigerian cities. (...) This is important because they know their realities and their
preferences would ensure that such interventions are sustainable.
■ Multi-Stakeholder Engagement: In cities, various non-state actions currently support this
group in unstructured ways and therefore would have key lessons to inform intervention
processes, therefore, these various groups should be included in the planning and
implementation of such efforts.
■ Technical Support for Preferred Host Communities: The prevalent factor prompting IDPs to end up as homeless people in cities and eventually set up the new informal shelters
is due to the discrimination against this population in existing urban slums and established
informal settlements (Roberts and Okanya, 2018). The 2020 case-study by Roberts and
Okanya proposes that to curb such discrimination, it is critical for intervention strategies to
include engagement of preferred destination for IDP migrants, as well as with the
communities that they migrate to.

Harmonisation
• Two main types of harmonisation: testing methodology and efficiency levels (eg MEPS)
• MEPS harmonisation would be preferable, but given different levels of development and cultural preferences, it is unlikely that the full MEPS harmonisation will occur in the near future
• Hence we recommend focusing upon testing methodology harmonisation
• It should be noted that many of TISI’s test procedures are already harmonised with international testing standards
