Measurement
Understanding litter in Victoria
VLAA is a clearing house for measurement data and research collected in Victoria. While not all measurement conducted is available we have endeavoured to publish those made available to us. If you have a study to be added please contact us
Measurement data and research is very useful because it tells us a story and is used to develop policies and programs about litter prevention. Data and research on litter can either be behavioural - it tries to answer the question "Why do people litter and what would stop them?", or it can be based on analysing the amount of litter in the environment - "How much litter is out there?"
It also provides benchmarks for improving Victoria's litter management and prevention programs in the future.
