FROM WASTE TO WONDER: TRANSPROGRAMMING APPROACH TO ENCOURAGE SUSTAINABLE WASTE MANAGEMENT
The waste problem has become a global issue because it causes climate change. Every year, the world produces 2.01 billion tonnes of waste, and this is expected to increase to 3.4 billion tonnes per year by 2050. Most of the waste is currently disposed of in final disposal sites (TPA), with 30% of th...

| Summary: | The waste problem has become a global issue because it causes climate change. Every year, the world produces 2.01 billion tonnes of waste, and this is expected to increase to 3.4 billion tonnes per year by 2050. Most of the waste is currently disposed of in final disposal sites (TPA), with 30% of the world's waste being disposed of openly. dumping. Likewise in Indonesia, waste management in general still relies on methods of collection, transportation and disposal to landfill.
In the context of Bandung City, the waste problem is also a problem that has not been handled properly until now. The city of Bandung has the third highest amount of waste generation in West Java. On the other hand, the city of Bandung only has one final disposal site (TPA), namely the Sarimukti TPA, which is overloaded and nearing the end of its operational period. There is no other landfill alternative due to the NIMBY (Not in My Backyard) effect where people tend to reject the construction of a landfill in their environment because they are worried about the negative impacts, so the government has difficulty determining the location of a new landfill. In response to this problem, there is a need for alternative solutions for building landfills that can reduce the amount of waste generated in the long term but remain acceptable in urban communities. So, a transprogramming approach was carried out between waste management facilities and recreational educational facilities located in the Jatinangor higher education area. It is hoped that this can be an effort to transform the value of waste into energy that is socio-economically sustainable as well as being a means of education that increases public awareness regarding the amount of waste produced and the complicated processes that accompany its destruction as well as increasing awareness about sorting waste on a household scale.
