      The present study is an evaluation of the Industry Stewardship Programs’ (ISPs) performance and effectiveness over a 5-year (2011-2015) period in the Province of Manitoba. The specific objectives of the study were: i) to develop an evaluation framework for the assessment of program performance and effectiveness; ii) to examine the process of target setting, accomplishments in relation to targets, and the barriers and the opportunities for achieving them; and iii) to examine options for improving program performance to formulate recommendations for Manitoba’s industry stewardship programs. Required data were collected by reviewing 5-year annual reports and through 15 key-informant interviews to determine the programs’ effectiveness, barriers and opportunities in program delivery. The findings indicated that the efficiency and effectiveness of waste management programs are highly dependent upon the convenience and awareness of them. The operations and collection of materials regarding each program could be improved further by setting clearly legislated waste targets, improving monitoring and auditing, and expanding programs in and to northern communities. ; February 2018
