Urban waste management has become an increasingly urgent global issue due to its significant impacts on environmental sustainability and public health. Waste management challenges are not solely related to the availability of infrastructure and facilities but are also strongly influenced by community behavior. The Municipal Public Order Agency (Satuan Polisi Pamong Praja) serves as a facilitator in fostering a culture of waste segregation within the workplace and the community. In the context of waste management, Satpol PP plays a strategic role as an agent of change in promoting waste segregation practices as part of the implementation of the Governor of DKI Jakarta Instruction Number 5 2026. This community service program employed the Participatory Urban Appraisal (PUA) approach, a participatory method that actively involves community members in identifying problems, planning solutions, implementing actions, and evaluating the waste segregation program. This approach was selected to strengthen environmental stewardship and promote sustainable behavioral change. The results of the program indicate that the community has developed an awareness of waste segregation, demonstrating an increased willingness to separate waste according to its categories and to support sustainable waste management practices.
