In the city of Makassar, there were initially around 1000 waste banks, but this number has decreased significantly, and by 2023 only 381 waste banks remain active. The decline in the number of waste banks is primarily due to the society's lack of knowledge regarding the utilization of waste banks. This research aims to rank active waste banks in Makassar using the MCDM (Multi-Criteria Decision Making) technique. Two MCDM methods will be utilized in this study: the TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method and the VIKOR (VIseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje) method. Both methods share a common goal of finding the closest value to the ideal solution, but they differ in their normalization and aggregation functions. TOPSIS calculates the criteria weight values first, followed by the criteria values, whereas VIKOR starts with the highest criteria values and then calculates the criteria weights. The results of this research indicate that some alternatives received the same ranking using TOPSIS and VIKOR methods. The criteria used to calculate data for Waste Banks are Operational Hours, Operational Schedule, Total Customers, Total Employees, and Amount of Collected Waste. These criteria are determined based on Regulation Minister of Environment and Forestry Republic of Indonesia Number 14 of 2021 concerning Waste Management at Waste Banks.

Community-based waste management innovation can be done through a waste bank which is the development of the 3R concept (reuse, reduce, recycle). Community participation, especially housewives, being customers of the waste bank is highly expected in supporting waste management towards a healthy, clean life while at the same time increasing economic value. This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitudes, and actions of housewives with participation in the waste bank. It is important to know and conduct an in-depth discussion so that the results obtained can be used as the basis for developing waste banks, as well as evaluating existing waste banks in the community. The type of research used is observational analytic with a case control research design with a sample size of 76 respondents (38 respondents are waste bank customers, and 38 respondents are non-waste bank customers). Data analysis using chi square test with 95% confidence level.. The results showed that there was a relationship between knowledge (p value 0.004) and the participation of housewives in the waste bank. There is a relationship between attitudes (p value 0.000) with the participation of housewives in the waste bank. There is an action relationship (p value 0.001) with the participation of housewives in the waste bank. Knowledge, attitudes and actions of waste bank customers are better than those of housewives who are not waste bank customers. Increased knowledge of attitudes and actions can be carried out in the form of socialization, counseling and community empowerment, as well as improving facilities and infrastructure in waste management can increase the participation of housewives in the waste bank. Waste banks are expected to have an impact on housewives in increasing economic value, while maintaining environmental sustainability and cleanliness.

Community participation is required for managing solid waste. In Indonesia, community acceptance and participation in solid waste management are assessed by the presence of a waste bank at the village or neighborhood level. This study aimed to find out the source, economic potency, and handling system of solid waste in a village setting. This study took place at Ketapang Village, Mauk Sub District, Tangerang Regency, Indonesia. This study evaluated the community participation in the waste bank in Ketapang Village, which is called, Sakumis Bersalaman Waste Bank, and its potential to manage solid waste and generate some profits for the community. Some steps were performed to obtain the answer to the research question. A desk review was conducted to analyze the current waste management practice. Solid waste generation data was taken from an 8-days survey of the collected waste managed by the waste bank. In-depth interviews with 96 households were conducted to find out the potential of future waste bank development. It was found that from 1,988 households in Ketapang Village only 448 households participated in Sakumis Bersalaman Waste Bank. Based on the results of the analysis on the questionnaire which was distributed randomly to 182 households which are communities around the waste bank, it was found that 51.4% of respondents were not yet members of the waste bank. From this percentage, 94.4% of them declared that they want to be waste bank members. It is suggested to Shakumis Bersalaman Waste Bank to add members so that more waste will be recycled. In this way, the community will receive more benefits. From the results, we concluded that community participation through a waste bank, especially a better waste management system, is the potential way to increase the economic level of the village. Moreover, a waste bank could facilitate better solid waste management and produce a sustainable circular economy at the village level.

This community service program aims to empower village communities through the establishment of waste banks as a solution for sustainable waste management. The background of the activity is the increasing volume of unmanaged household waste, which has led to environmental and health problems in the village. The waste bank was chosen as an instrument because it can integrate environmental, social, and economic aspects simultaneously. The service method is carried out using a participatory approach, including outreach, technical training on waste sorting, waste bank administration management, and mentoring community groups. The results of the activity show an increase in community awareness of the importance of waste management starting from the household level. The community has become accustomed to sorting organic and inorganic waste and submitting it to the waste bank. The collected waste is then processed or resold, generating economic value for the community. In addition to impacting environmental cleanliness, this program also creates a circular economic system in the village, where waste is viewed as a resource, not a burden. The waste bank has proven to be an effective instrument for empowering village communities, strengthening community participation, and supporting environmentally friendly sustainable development.
