Abstract

BACKGRUOUND: Government policies in waste management aim to improve public health, environmental quality, and waste as a resource. Data show that 73.6% of residences have not classified waste into organic, inorganic, and hazardous waste types. AIM: This qualitative research uses sociological jurisprudence and legal sociology approaches. METHODS: Data were obtained through literature review and case studies. RESULTS: Results show that waste banks are used as a form of waste management, where recyclable and/or reusable waste with economic value are sorted and collected. The waste bank implementation was synergized with manufacturers in the form of corporate social Responsibility (CSR). These CSR funds are not yet maximized for waste management groups established by the West Nusa Tenggara Province, which has reached 99 units in 2017 and 54 in 2018. Funds are dominated by local governments in fostering, socializing programs, and providing facilities, infrastructure as well as capital assistance. CONCLUSION: In addition to local governments, manufacturers participate in ensuring everyone’s right to gain a good and healthy environment through waste banks. Another form of responsibility was efforts to change the society’s paradigm and behavior on sustainable waste management from its source, namely, household waste. This has not run optimally, nor has it been synergized with volunteer-based academics.
