Abstract
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a commitment of United Nations member countries that contain 17 global goals and targets by 2030. Indonesia as a member of the United Nations seeks to integrate this commitment into every policy, one of which is in the Regulation of the Minister of Health Number 18 of 2020 concerning Management of Medical Waste from Regional Based Health Service Facilities. Medical waste is a type of hazardous waste that requires special handling so as not to have a negative impact on human health and the environment. Although this regulation is one of the efforts to realize the Sustainable Development Goals, medical waste management has not been implemented properly. This study aims to analyze the strategy for optimizing regional based medical waste management in Buleleng Regency in supporting the Regulation of the Minister of Health Number 18 of 2020 and achieving SDGs. The methods used are the normative legal approach and descriptive analysis. The results of the study indicate that the emergence of obstacles to the implementation of the regulation is due to limited infrastructure and lack of public education. The proposed strategies include improving infrastructure, education, and increasing supervision. The implementation of this strategy is expected to improve medical waste management in Buleleng Regency and support the achievement of SDGs.
