Optimalisasi Kebersihan Kawasan Wisata melalui Penerapan Keranjang Pilah Sampah Berbahan Alami di Desa Suranadi, Lombok Barat

Abstrak

Suranadi Village, Narmada District, West Lombok Regency, is a tourist area with potential for natural, religious, and culinary tourism, but faces the problem of increasing waste volume and limited waste sorting facilities. Tourism and community activities generate organic, inorganic, and potentially recyclable waste, requiring more targeted management to maintain the cleanliness and comfort of the tourist area. This condition is also related to the still limited awareness of the community and business actors in sorting waste at the source. This activity aims to improve the cleanliness of the tourist area by implementing waste sorting baskets made from natural materials while increasing public understanding and participation in waste management. The activity was carried out through preparation and coordination with partners, surveys and mapping of locations, making sorting baskets made from natural materials, placing them at strategic points, socialization and education, as well as mentoring, monitoring, and evaluation. The results of the activity showed the availability of waste sorting baskets made from natural materials that can be used to sort waste by type, namely organic, inorganic, and recyclable waste. The baskets were placed in strategic locations related to community and tourist activities so that they are easier to access and use. The outreach activities provided an understanding of the importance of waste sorting and the proper use of sorting baskets. The implementation of these facilities encouraged public awareness of environmental cleanliness and increased involvement in waste management. These activities are expected to support the creation of cleaner, more comfortable, environmentally friendly, and sustainable tourist areas through the application of simple technology and active community involvement.
