Abstract
In Indonesia, trough Sanimas (Community Based Sanitation Program), which is coordinated by the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing in collaboration with local governments and communities, establishes KSM (Community Self-Help Group) for Communal Liquid Waste Management Installations. The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that cause the sustainability of community-based liquid waste management. This research uses mixed methods, that is by analyzing quantitative data from the SKM (Community Satisfaction Survey) 2019 on the Implementation of Infrastructure Services in Yogyakarta City and then validated with primary data collected from semi-structured interviews with the head of KSM from the three well-managed Communal IPALs. Instead of the active participation of the community, the result shows in the case of Yogyakarta City, the key of Communal IPAL management sustainability is still more on the role and commitment of KSM or community leaders rather than the active participation of the community.

Summary
Increasing the number of residents in urban areas is a challenge for the city government. Waste management is related to environmental sustainability and has the potential to cause impacts on health, the environment and the economy [1]. The low quality in waste management is caused by several things such as weak government policies and coordination, limited funding, low participation from the private sector, inefficiencies and low public awareness [4]. The role of the community in waste management is interesting to study because it has the potential to influence the sustainability of the program. Community participation together with policy makers is a very important factor to ensure the sustainability of the waste management program that is through discussions and meetings to solve problems together [5]. The relationship between policy makers and community groups is able to increase trust and increase public awareness [5]
