Abstract

The success of waste management cannot be separated from the community's participation. The community's involvement in waste management is still not significantly apparent. Community participation in rural waste management program was investigated in this study since the waste reduction activities still involve waste open burning and burying in the yard which is harmful for the environment. A research model was designed, and a questionnaire was distributed among 112 households (HHs) to analyze their participation in rural waste management programs. A semi-structured questionnaire survey, focus group discussions, and key informant interviews were adopted to acquire qualitative information. The analytical framework includes mass balance analysis (MBA) and Arnstein’s participation (APL) ladder. MBA was applied to measure the current waste reduction rate of each HH, while APL was used to evaluate community participation level in this program. The findings reveal that the average waste reduction is 0.48 kg/HH/day, contributing to a total waste reduction of 17.94 kg/day in the village (24.39% of total waste generation). Measurement using APL unfolds that the extant community participation in Mojosari Village, Bojonegoro Regency, corresponds to a non-participation continuum where villagers are misled by pseudo and tokenistic participation leading to unequal benefit-sharing. Based on these findings, the researchers challenge that communities’ engagement in rural waste management mainly relies on community cadres concerning environmental subjects as well as communities’ economic background. It is concluded where economically weak communities and manipulative figures exist, ensuring a higher community participation level is more challenging

Abstract

This study presents the results of a preliminary attempt to assess community acceptance in an Indonesian village where a community-based waste management program is economically more attractive than simply burning or burying the waste. In Karangan Village, Bojonegoro, domestic waste is mostly burnt or buried, contributing to environmental degradation, such as water, soil, and air pollution caused by smoke. Regression analysis was applied to calculate and analyze the data. Photo mapping on current waste management (WM) practices was provided beforehand to identify its effect on the environment. The study indicates that there were about 18 illegal dumping sites in the village, which are frequently open-burnt by villagers, emitting odor and smoke, deteriorating the air quality. Low community participation in rural waste management, only 56.6%, causes improper WM. The study emphasizes the significant role of individual characteristics, age, education, motivation, opinion, willingness to be involved, sense of responsibility, information about 3R and 3R counseling, availability on dissemination, and training on waste management in influencing individuals' participation in community activities. Keywords: rural waste management, waste reduction

Abstract

The success of waste management must be connected to the community's participation. The community's involvement in waste management still needs to be significantly apparent. Community participation in rural waste management programs was investigated in this study since the waste reduction activities still involve open burning and burying of waste in the yard, which is harmful to the environment. A research model was designed, and a questionnaire was distributed among 112 households (HHs) to analyze their participation in rural waste management programs. A semi-structured questionnaire survey, focus group discussions, and key informant interviews were adopted to acquire qualitative information. The analytical framework includes mass balance analysis (MBA) and Arnstein's participation (APL) ladder. MBA was applied to measure each HH's current waste reduction rate, while (APL) was used to evaluate the community participation level in this program. The findings revealed that the average waste reduction is 0,48 kg/HH/day, contributing to a total waste reduction of 17.94 kg/day in the village (24.39% of total waste generation). Measurement using APL unfolds that the extant community participation in Mojosari Village, Bojonegoro Regency, corresponds to a non-participation continuum where villagers are simply misled by pseudo and tokenistic participation, leading to unequal benefit-sharing.
