Project Abstract

Abstract
The management of waste in urban areas is a critical environmental issue that requires sustainable solutions to mitigate its adverse impacts on public health and the environment. This research project focuses on assessing sustainable waste management practices in urban areas through a case study approach. The study aims to investigate the current waste management strategies employed in an urban setting, identify challenges and opportunities for improvement, and propose recommendations for enhancing sustainability in waste management practices. The research methodology includes a comprehensive literature review to explore existing concepts, theories, and best practices related to sustainable waste management in urban areas. Primary data collection methods such as surveys, interviews, and site visits will be utilized to gather empirical data from stakeholders involved in waste management processes. The data analysis will involve both quantitative and qualitative techniques to evaluate the effectiveness of current waste management practices and identify areas for improvement. The findings of the study are expected to provide valuable insights into the strengths and weaknesses of existing waste management systems in urban areas. The discussion of findings will highlight key challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, insufficient public awareness, and regulatory gaps that hinder the implementation of sustainable waste management practices. Additionally, the study will explore opportunities for innovation and collaboration among stakeholders to enhance waste reduction, recycling, and disposal processes in urban environments. The significance of this research lies in its potential to contribute to the development of practical recommendations and strategies for improving waste management practices in urban areas. By promoting sustainability in waste management, this study aims to reduce environmental pollution, conserve natural resources, and promote public health and well-being in urban communities. The study outcomes are expected to benefit policymakers, waste management practitioners, environmental organizations, and the general public interested in promoting sustainable development practices. In conclusion, this research project on the assessment of sustainable waste management practices in urban areas through a case study approach holds promise for addressing the pressing challenges associated with waste management in urban environments. By identifying opportunities for improvement and proposing actionable recommendations, this study aims to foster sustainable waste management practices that contribute to a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable urban environment.
