Abstract
Technological Incubators of Popular Cooperatives (ITCPs, Portuguese acronym) aim to promote sustainable development through outreach activities for enterprises of solidarity economy. The Techno-social Incubator of Solidarity Economic Cooperatives and Enterprises (ITCEES, Portuguese acronym) is a multidisciplinary laboratory from the Federal University of the South Boarder (UFFS, Portuguese acronym) that acts through the incubation of enterprises; an example of its actions is on Environmental Education. In 2016, ITCEES created the Social Management Forum, which seeks to solve the problem of urban solid waste (USW) through the collective discussion among several social actors in order to solve a problem that plagues the municipality of Cerro Largo (RS). The research adopted a qualitative approach. The outcomes that can be highlighted are the implementation of an environmental education project in municipal schools, the elaboration of a flyer about selective waste collection, the resumption of the saturated fat recycling project, the establishment of a waste collectors cooperative, and the acquisition of individual protection equipment in addition to courses to waste collectors.
