Assessing the implementation of waste management retribution related to Bogor tourism sustainable

Abstract

This research was conducted in Bogor, Indonesia, to study the implementation of waste management retribution since Bogor is a tourism destination. Over the years, the population of Bogor has been steadily increasing, as well as tourists visiting, which led to a rise in waste generation and subsequent pollution. Bogor waste management primarily involves collecting, transporting, and depositing at the final processing place (TPA) Galuga, which may result in adverse environmental impacts. To overcome these issues, Bogor has set ambitious targets of reducing waste by 30% and handling 70% of it to achieve the 12.5 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and concept of Green Tourism. The Polluter Pays Principle (PPP) will encourage responsible waste handling among communities. So, waste management retribution is based on PPP, such as waste sorting at the source, waste payment fees, and public awareness among communities. The method used in this research is a survey using a questionnaire to community with a three-scenario approach offered. The findings in this research revealed distinctions in the behaviors between non-residents and residential communities. Overall, sustain tourism and maintain positive image for tourist destinations in Bogor requires the implementation of comprehensive and active engagement from all stakeholders, including the local community.
