Indonesia produces about 175.000 tons of waste each day, where 40% of it comes from domestic waste. The complexity of the waste problem in Indonesia is also inevitable to Bogor Regency. Almost 2,850 tons of Bogor residents’ waste is generated every day and only 700 tons are distributed to the landfill.

The implementation of the Reduce, Reuse and Recycle Waste Management Site (Tempat Pengelolaan Sampah 3R – TPS 3R) is a solid waste management approach involving the role of citizens and government. In collaboration with DOW Indonesia, Waste4Change assisted three locations of TPS 3R and Waste Bank in Bogor Regency for one year; Green Altari in Ciomas sub-district, The Ganesha Lestari waste bank in Telaga Kahuripan sub-district, and the Sampah Lisan Bumi waste bank in East Cilebut sub-district. This program is hoped to be a learning medium for Non-Governmental Groups (Kelompok Swadaya Masyarakat) to improve solid waste management in their area.
