This study evaluates the effectiveness of sustainable waste management programmes in Kebakkramat District, highlighting the challenges faced and proposing solutions to align with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The research employs a mixed-methods approach, integrating quantitative data from local waste management statistics and qualitative insights from community surveys. Preliminary findings indicate that while some initiatives have been successful in reducing waste generation and promoting recycling, significant barriers remain, including lack of public awareness, inadequate infrastructure, and insufficient funding. The paper concludes with recommendations for enhancing the efficacy of these programmes, thereby contributing to the broader objectives of sustainable development.
