IDCon5 - Statewide Conference on Illegal Dumping

The 5th Statewide Conference on Illegal Dumping (IDCon5) seeks to elevate and disseminate best practices for addressing illegal dumping throughout the State of California.

The theme of IDCon 5 is Breaking the Cycle: Systemic Solutions for Illegal Dumping. Building on years of consensus around core strategies—The Three E’s (education, eradication, enforcement), partnerships, and more—this year’s conference will focus on how to integrate those approaches into lasting, scalable systems. Insights from a statewide survey of experts addressing illegal dumping will help frame key discussions and highlight the growing need for long-term, structural solutions

The Conference is a hybrid event, with in-person activities in downtown Oakland, CA and the first day available online via Zoom. More information is available in the Conference Details section below.
