Analisis Kualitatif Peran Program Pengelolaan Sampah Organik dan Anorganik sebagai Upaya Konservasi Lingkungan

Introduction

Analisis kualitatif peran program pengelolaan sampah organik dan anorganik sebagai upaya konservasi lingkungan. Program KKN UGM di Anyer sukses berdayakan masyarakat dalam pengelolaan sampah organik & anorganik. Hasilkan produk bernilai jual dan tingkatkan kesadaran konservasi lingkungan.

Abstract

Kurangnya kesadaran warga Desa Bandulu dan Tambang Ayam atas isu-isu pengelolaan sampah mendorong munculnya program kerja dari tim Kuliah Kerja Nyata Pembelajaran Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Universitas Gadjah Mada di Anyer tahun 2023 sebagai respons solutif terhadap permasalahan tersebut. Melalui tema “Desa Bebas Sampah”, terwujud berbagai program pemberdayaan masyarakat setempat dengan peran pada pengelolaan hingga penurunan volume limbah rumah tangga dan peningkatan fungsi tempat pembuangan akhir. Program pengelolaan sampah didesain untuk melewati beberapa tahap, yakni observasi permasalahan, identifikasi masalah, perumusan solusi dan program kerja solutif, pelaksanaan program, hingga evaluasi. Berbagai metode pengelolaan sampah organik dan anorganik diperkenalkan melalui program kerja, dengan penekanan pada pengubahan dan penambahan nilai guna serta nilai jual sampah rumah tangga. Beberapa produk yang yang dihasilkan melalui pengelolaan sampah anorganik antara lain adalah tas, ecobrick, ryegyotaku, pembatas buku, dan pertanian hidroponik dengan sistem wick. Program pengelolaan sampah organik juga menghasilkan produk-produk seperti ekoenzim, lilin aromaterapi, pestisida organik, dan metode budi daya maggot. Program yang telah dilaksanakan mendapat respons positif akibat manfaatnya dalam meningkatkan pemahaman atas pengelolaan sampah serta penciptaan produk berbahan sampah yang bernilai guna dan jual. Ke depannya, program ini diharapkan mampu mengurangi debit sampah rumah tangga dan meningkatkan pemahaman serta upaya masyarakat dalam mewujudkan konservasi lingkungan.

Review

The submitted work, "Analisis Kualitatif Peran Program Pengelolaan Sampah Organik dan Anorganik sebagai Upaya Konservasi Lingkungan," addresses a critical and highly relevant issue concerning waste management and environmental conservation within local communities. The abstract effectively introduces a community-based intervention initiated by a Universitas Gadjah Mada KKN-PPM team in Desa Bandulu and Tambang Ayam, Anyer, in response to low public awareness regarding waste management. The paper aims to qualitatively analyze the role and impact of this structured program in fostering sustainable practices with a focus on waste reduction and value addition. A significant strength of the described initiative lies in its systematic approach, encompassing stages from problem observation and identification to solution formulation, program implementation, and evaluation. The abstract highlights the practical and empowering nature of the program, which focused on introducing various methods for managing both organic and inorganic waste. The emphasis on transforming waste into products with added utility and economic value (e.g., ecobricks, hydroponics from inorganic waste; ecoenzymes, maggot cultivation from organic waste) is particularly commendable, demonstrating tangible outcomes and promoting a circular economy mindset. The reported positive community response further underscores the immediate success and perceived benefits of the program in enhancing understanding and practical skills. While the abstract clearly outlines a commendable community engagement program and its initial positive reception, the full paper would benefit from a more detailed exposition of the "qualitative analysis" aspect hinted at in the title. It would be valuable to understand the specific qualitative methodologies employed to assess the program's impact, beyond merely stating a "positive response." Further elaboration on data collection techniques (e.g., in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, participant observation) and the analytical framework used to interpret community perception, behavior change, and program effectiveness would significantly strengthen the paper's academic rigor. Additionally, exploring challenges encountered during implementation and discussing strategies for ensuring the long-term sustainability and scalability of these initiatives beyond the KKN program's duration would provide deeper insights into the complexities of community-based conservation efforts.
