Project Abstract

Abstract
The increasing urbanization and population growth in cities around the world have led to a significant rise in waste generation, posing serious environmental and health challenges. The need for sustainable waste management practices in urban areas has become paramount to mitigate the negative impacts of waste on public health and the environment. This research project aims to assess the current waste management practices in urban areas and evaluate their sustainability. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research, discussing the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure, and definition of terms. The chapter sets the stage for the research by highlighting the importance of sustainable waste management practices in urban areas. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review covering ten key areas related to waste management practices in urban areas. The review explores existing studies, theories, and models related to sustainable waste management, providing a theoretical framework for the research. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology, detailing the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, ethical considerations, and limitations of the study. The chapter describes how the research will be conducted to achieve the objectives of the study. Chapter Four presents the findings of the research, discussing seven key aspects related to sustainable waste management practices in urban areas. The chapter analyzes the data collected and provides insights into the current state of waste management practices, identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Chapter Five concludes the research by summarizing the key findings, discussing the implications for practice and policy, and providing recommendations for future research. The chapter highlights the importance of adopting sustainable waste management practices in urban areas to create healthier and more sustainable cities. Overall, this research project contributes to the existing body of knowledge on sustainable waste management practices in urban areas and provides valuable insights for policymakers, urban planners, waste management professionals, and researchers. By assessing the current practices and exploring opportunities for improvement, this research aims to inform the development of effective strategies to address the challenges of waste management in urban areas and promote sustainable development.
