Waste Management in Dhaka City:: Private-Public-Community Initiatives
Waste generation is the byproduct of modern city life. Industries and newly sophisticated consumption by the citizens left a considerable amount of waste. Management of the waste including reduction, collection, transportation, and treatment is considered as the vital phenomenon of aestheticism, public health, and environmental concerns. Counting many years, waste management has been the most ignored issue of government though it is one of the core concerns of the urban environment. In spite of emphasizing waste management, is it beyond the ability of City Corporation’s resource to manage this immense amount of trashes. With this proliferation of population, waste generation rate also increasing day by day. The city is facing severe problems to treat its own produced filth and trashes. Undermined structure of municipality and lack of adequate policy, the waste management system is still not efficient to drive well-organized initiatives. This inadequacy of formal authority has created the working opportunity for the private informal sector and community-based organizations. Waste management denotes the generation of waste and the collection, processing, transport, and disposal of waste include the process of ‘waste management.’ (Rushton, 2003) The processes refer treatment of solid waste from door to door collection by vans, transporting with trucks and other vehicles and dispose of them in dumping station. Reduce the generation from household level and awareness building among citizens also recognized as management procedure.
