“…18 However, despite the existence of these innovative programs, sometimes it does not involve continuous monitoring and evaluation, so as a result, sometimes the program becomes neglected. 19 Empowerment programs in the community, such as Gempa Perekat, are aimed at processing household waste into tools or media for PAUD children. This program, which involves the PKK mobilizing group, must become a model for support and waste management done properly and sustainably and demonstrate the benefits of using waste as a student learning medium.…”

Garbage is a problem in urban areas. One of the efforts that can be made against the waste problem is reprocessing it into useful materials. PKK is a family welfare coaching group that can turn waste into media material for educational games for PAUD students through self-help groups. The goal of this community service and research is to empower and assist PKK activist groups in optimizing waste as an educational game tool for children from a young age. The method used is a quantitative and qualitative approach. The quantitative data are in the form of demographic data, knowledge, and skills. In contrast, the qualitative data comes from structured interviews and FGDs with a grid of questions about waste, the efforts that have been made, and the benefits of recycling the waste as an educational game tool. The measuring tool used is a questionnaire about waste knowledge and a waste processing checklist sheet. The target of this activity was 25 PKK groups at RW 02 of Merjosari Subdistrict, Lowokwaru District, Malang City, and it was carried out in June-August 2019. This Gempa Perekat activity consisted of health education, focus group discussion, and forming self-help groups. The result of this activity is that the respondent's knowledge increases after receiving health education about waste management (0.000). There is an average skill in processing waste into a good educational game tool (73) among respondents, and they stated that all this time, waste has been disposed of, put in plastic bags, and burned. Furthermore, respondents hoped that there would be waste management that could be useful for PAUD students by processing waste into educational games. The conclusion of this activity is the Gempa Perekat program as a form of intervention in dealing with waste in the city by empowering the PKK as a self-help group in making educational game tools for PAUD students from waste.

“…Waste management with voluntary community awareness and participation is the social capital that drives the success of the waste management process (Brotosusilo & Nabila, 2020;Dururu et al, 2015;Marsden, 2008). However, the findings in this study suggest that public awareness and participation are very low.…”

Sustainable Municipal Solid Waste management has remained a big challenge in Africa and other resource constrained settings. However, to achieve sustainability, the gaps in governance of waste management need to be addressed speedily as populations are expanding rapidly, far exceeding available infrastructure and resources. Ruiru subcounty has a rapidly expanding population which has not been matched with sustainable waste management in commercial and residential sectors. This study sought to establish the influence of governance on Sustainable Municipal Solid Waste management in Ruiru Sub-County. Mixed methods research approach and descriptive research design were used in both data collection and analysis. This involved administration of Questionnaires, interviews and observation checklist through an online platform Kobo Collect. Results of the study showed that the County Government and subsequent sub-counties are responsible for waste management. Despites this mandate there are heaps of waste remain in commercial and residential areas. This is attributed to various governance challenges such as lack of prioritization of waste management, limited financial and human resources, minimal community participation, disregard of informal players in waste management cycle, weak implementation and enforcement of waste management policies. While it is desirable to attain sustainable solid waste management in Ruiru, and while the national legal frameworks are in place, there are major challenges and gaps in solid waste governance. Therefore, this study concludes enforceability of mechanisms, adequacy of funding, wholistic involvement of all players remain daunting. Unless these are addressed, sustainable waste management will only remain an unattainable goal.

“…Pillars for both stakeholder and community engagement for an integrated sustainable waste management are considered including capacity building, awareness, and education. These aspects can be developed through a combination of approaches, including community participation, public-private partnerships, knowledge transfer and collective learning, incentives, and international cooperation [44][45][46][47].…”

Current environmental challenges invite us to deeply revise policies, governance models, and resource management toolkits towards a circular approach, in order to meet Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requirements. In this framework, circular waste management is one of the pillars of responsible and foresighted planning for territorial sustainability. The “3Rs for a sustainable use of natural resources in Ulaanbaatar” (3R4UB) project aims at transferring a sustainable approach to urban solid waste management, especially focusing on providing effective opportunities for developing circular supply chains locally. In this framework, an integrated approach has been developed in order to adapt the communication/exploitation plan of sustainable waste management within a SWITCH-Asia Country (EU Program) by combining engagement tools and participatory processes for the collaborative design of a waste management masterplan. This paper explores the spatialization of resources/waste flows in the formal and informal settlements, while also considering cultural traditions, social structures, and community habits, in terms of a purposely designed combination of spatial planning, governance modeling, and capacity building activities. Starting from a preliminary communication plan, this paper sets the frame for discussing the role of community engagement tools and protocols in producing an effective and generalizable collaborative waste management masterplan.
