Abstract
This research delves into the multifaceted landscape of sustainable waste management in the context of Barisal City Corporation, emphasizing the challenges of implementing the 3R strategy. The city's waste management practices and perceptions among its residents are examined through a comprehensive primary data collection process, offering critical insights into the current state of waste management. The study reveals formidable challenges such as insufficient local government initiatives and supervision, irregular waste transportation and segregation, insufficient manpower, unconventional waste storage and disposal practices, unaddressed environmental impact, and the lack of a secondary transfer station. At the same time, the research uncovers promising prospects, including source segregation, energy-efficient waste transportation, and an emerging recycling culture. By addressing these challenges, the city can significantly advance its waste management initiatives, aligning them with the 3R strategy and striving for a cleaner, more sustainable urban environment.
