Abstract

In terms of environmental and economic concerns in Indonesia, waste management is critical. One option for addressing waste problems is a waste bank. Bintang Sejahtera Waste Bank is a waste management pilot initiative conducted by a community group in Lombok. As this study used a descriptive qualitative approach to examine how the Bintang Sejahtera Waste Bank manages waste. The findings revealed that the waste management process is separated into two phases: waste milling phases and waste pressing phases. From this point, the researcher believes that waste management is compelling the waste bank to share the public's understanding of how essential waste management is. It is hoped that by teaching and socializing the program, people would become interested in collecting and delivering their garbage to the waste bank. Meanwhile, the rise in societal wealth is not dramatically altering, but local groups are still becoming empowered in terms of work possibilities that may sustain their economies.as waste management pilot project in Lombok, There is a need for waste recycling management training and coaching so that it may be reused as one of the waste management principles. Strong rules and supporting facilities are required so that people do not toss rubbish everywhere.
