Management Participation, Solid Waste, Khamu EthnicAbstract
The purposes of this research were to study the conditions, factors, and guidelines for participatory waste management and distill the lessons of participatory waste management in the Khamu ethnic community of Baan Wang Pha, Tha Kham subdistrict, Wiang Kaen district, Chiang Rai Province. We conducted the research using a qualitative method, collecting data from household representatives and community committees. The research instruments used were SWOT and TOWS analyses, the CIPP model, interview structure, guided interviews, and focus groups. We analyzed the data through content analysis and synthesis, then compiled it into a descriptive research report. The research revealed that the Khamu ethnic communities in Baan Wang Pha, located in highland remote areas, face waste management challenges due to their lack of proper management and appropriate knowledge of solid waste management. The factors or conditions that contributed to the success of solid waste management in the communities, which were community leaders, village committees, health volunteers, strong women groups, villager cooperation, and the local government organization, supported the budget and solid waste management planning. To improve community waste management efficiency, there were using the 3R principles: reduce, reuse, recycle, and the five "5 Gor," such as group, fund, rules, activities, and committee.
