Implementation of a Sharia-Based Waste Bank as a Community Empowerment Model for Managing Economically Valuable Waste
Downloads
Abstract
Waste management requires a community-based approach that addresses environmental cleanliness while increasing the economic value of recyclable materials. This community service activity aimed to implement a Sharia Waste Bank as a community empowerment model for managing economically valuable waste. The program applied a participatory approach through socialization, customer registration, waste sorting and collection, weighing, transaction recording, and community assistance, with students involved as facilitators. The results showed the establishment of a more structured waste management mechanism involving paper, plastic bottles, and glass bottles, supported by weighing and value-recording procedures. Community participation in depositing recyclable materials indicated that the waste bank could function as both an environmental education platform and an economic empowerment instrument. The implementation of the Sharia Waste Bank strengthened community involvement by transforming waste from discarded material into a resource with measurable economic and value.
