Abstract
Currently, the educational institution is part of the city that is classified as a source of the city's waste. The purpose of this research was to study the factors influencing the success of waste management in health and nursing education institutions. Analysis of the physical waste composition was done by the Quartering Method. A questionnaire was used as a tool to explore information. Data were analyzed using the SPSS program and the factors were prioritized by the process of Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA). The results found that the total amount of waste was 1,693 kg/day and the waste generation rate was 1.55 kg/person/day. There were 20 factors influencing the success of waste management in educational institutions in health and nursing. The main important factors can be grouped into 4 groups: (1) Policy and organizational factors (2) Management factors (3) Procedure factors and (4) Performance factors. Application of information on important factors affecting waste management to create sustainable waste management options consists of 4 approaches: (1) Propose a construction plan for the university's waste collection facility to accommodate the amount of waste, (2) Prepare an operational plan under the strategic plan for the university. By setting a holistic management model with the same management system, (3) Set the direction, create activities with participatory processes to be concrete in determining the format of continuous activities to create sustainability and (4) Integrate factors from the study results with other factors from outside the study area. To jointly build strength between organizations in the spatial waste management dimension. To be an educational institution that plays the role of being an academic institution in urban public health development. and answers the challenge of being a green organization aiming for a low carbon society.
