Consideration of stakeholder interests in the planning of sustainable waste management programmes

Abstract

Those responsible for developing sustainable solid waste management programmes must consider the impacts of programme elements on everyone involved. This paper focuses on identifying the effects of waste management activities and assessing their overall impact on stakeholders. Collaborating with four focus groups and 36 experts, 19 effects were identified and nine questionnaires were designed to evaluate them, one for each stakeholder group. All told, 1805 people took part in the survey. The results show that the effects most important to the survey participants are: (a) recycling solid urban waste, (b) pollution and (c) corporate social responsibility.

“…The last group includes factors related to the protection of residential and agricultural areas as well as ecologically valuable areas [11][12][13][14][15]. The parameters that characterize the above-mentioned factors are available as part of the spatial information infrastructure platform (INSPIRE), which currently operates in more than 100 countries [16,17], and is used in various disciplines e.g., economics, demography, sociology, environmental protection, and management, particularly in terms of maintaining the sustainable development principle [18][19][20][21]. INSPIRE enables the acquisition of spatial data to solve practical as well as scientific and research issues.…”
