COVID-19 disaster has destroyed many facets of societal and economic circumstances. However, it remains a crucial debate how the effect of COVID-19 on community social capital. This study aims to examine the relationship between a community’s risk perception on COVID-19 and social capital. In addition, we also investigate the mediating role of social collectivism in the association. This research used a survey approach by performing an online questionnaire. Data were gathered from 156 respondents at the residence in an urban community in Sukoharjo, Central Java. A partial-least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was applied to analyze the data. The results show that social capital enhances during COVID 19 because of the increasing risk perceptions on COVID-19 and social collectivism. The impact of risk perceptions on social capital is mediated by social collectivism. The present study adds our understanding of social capital at the time of the COVID-19 outbreak, especially what factors drive it. The research also has practical implications for the government and urban community to anticipate risks of COVID-19 by enhancing social capital and collectivism.

“…In Indonesia, the establishment of waste banks in prominent regions such as Java, Sulawesi, Sumatera, and Kalimantan usually follows a similar pattern. The government serves as the formal initiator, while the local community or grassroots acts as the implementer, and the private sector acts as the accelerator [19,26,[29][30][31][32][33][34]. After the government provides the necessary legal aspects, the future management of waste banks is dependent on the community itself.…”

The existence of a waste bank is designed to reduce the municipal waste problem. However, not all regions can implement the waste banks program to deal with municipal solid waste. In 2019, Serang City managed only 51% of municipal waste out of 155,490 tons of waste/per year, including the contribution from the waste banks. This study aimed to determine the challenges of implementing waste banks and the impact of the circular economy in Serang. This study used a mixed approach which describes the results qualitatively-quantitatively. The study found: the positive response of the community to the existence of waste banks, the environmental motive behind the establishment of waste banks, waste banks in Serang dealing with infrastructures, human resources, and management, and the basic business model. Waste banks economically had not made a significant contribution to the members. The reduction ability was only 0.03% of total municipal solid waste. Another problem encountered was that cooperation with off-takers was not done on a contractual basis, which led to uncontrolled prices.

“…WB are an option for implementation in the future (Fatmawati et al, 2022;Mitchell, B., Setiawan, B., dan Rahmi, 2007;Ulhasanah & Goto, 2018;Wulandari et al, 2017). The handling of WB is based on applying social capital, including trust, norms, networks, reciprocity, and values (Pargal et al, 1999;Yudiatmaja et al, 2021). Social capital and informal values provide opportunities for community involvement in solving waste problems.…”

“…Social capital is the relationships created and the norms that shape the quality and quantity of social relations in society in a broad spectrum, namely as a social link that keeps members of the community (nation) together (Anggraeni & Saikhu, 2021;Frick, JE., Eriksson, LT., Hallen, 2012;Fukuyama, 2000;Jones et al, 2011;Pargal et al, 1999Pargal et al, , 2000T. H. Tsai, 2008;Wulandari et al, 2017;Yudiatmaja et al, 2021). Social capital is transmitted through cultural mechanisms, such as religion, tradition, or historical customs (Fukuyama, 2000).…”

The waste bank (WB) is a government program encouraging community participation in managing waste with social engineering principles. Since its establishment in 2008, only 5% of active customers remain. This study evaluates the management of WB sustainably and the most optimal future alternatives. The research is qualitative and quantitative with a sequential exploratory approach. Data from 35 WB in four provinces (East Java, Central Java, West Java, and DI Yogyakarta) involved 680 respondents. The data was analyzed using the Analytic Network Process (ANP) and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) to select the optimal alternative. This study found that the three main problems in WB management are institutional (community proactiveness, training, outreach, and capacity building), waste bank capital (triple helix, youth education, and communication forums), and marketing (old selling products, price fluctuations, and market access). Strengthening social capital-based institutions is the main topic of improvement and sustainability, especially networks and trust. The role of government, NGOs, and the community is needed to encourage the sustainability of the WB. The main strategy for solving the problem is strengthening social capital-based institutions, especially networking and value (trust, convenience, and relationships). Assistance is needed from the government or NGOs in managing WB by prioritizing institutional strengthening based on social capital. In addition, encourage all parties to develop an independent waste bank model with reinforcements, especially in institutions, capital, and marketing.
