Abstract

This chapter explores the motivations driving stakeholder engagement and the challenges faced in waste management initiatives within the tourism sector, focusing on the perspectives of self-help groups (SHGs). Through qualitative research methods, including in-depth interviews, this study examines the diverse motivations that prompt SHGs to participate in waste management projects, ranging from environmental concerns to socioeconomic empowerment. Moreover, it identifies and analyses the multifaceted challenges SHGs encounter, such as limited resources, inadequate infrastructure, and bureaucratic hurdles. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of stakeholder dynamics in tourism waste management by elucidating these motivations and challenges. The findings suggest that while SHGs play a crucial role in fostering sustainable practices, effective collaboration and support mechanisms are essential to address the challenges encountered and maximize the potential benefits of stakeholder engagement in waste management projects within the tourism sector.
