Assessment of Sustainable Waste Management Strategies in Urban Areas

Project Abstract

The increasing urbanization and population growth in many cities have led to a significant rise in waste generation, posing environmental and public health challenges. This research project aims to assess sustainable waste management strategies in urban areas to address these challenges effectively. The study will focus on identifying the current waste management practices, evaluating their efficiency and sustainability, and proposing innovative solutions for improved waste management in urban settings.
