چکیده

پیشینه: مدیریت پسماند جامد همچنان یک چالش بزرگ در سراسر جهان، به‌ویژه در کشورهای درحال‌توسعه، از جمله پاکستان، محسوب می‌شود.
اهداف: هدف از این مطالعه بررسی عوامل مؤثر بر تمایل به پرداخت برای بهبود مدیریت پسماند جامد در شهر کویته، بلوچستان، پاکستان بود.
روش‌شناسی: برای این مطالعه مقطعی، از روش نمونه‌گیری چند مرحله‌ای برای انتخاب خانوارها استفاده شد. داده‌ها بین نوامبر ۲۰۲۲ تا دسامبر ۲۰۲۲ از ۴۰۰ پاسخ‌دهنده از طریق یک نظرسنجی مبتنی بر پرسشنامه جمع‌آوری شد. داده‌ها از طریق آمار توصیفی و استنباطی تجزیه‌وتحلیل شدند.
نتایج: یافته‌ها نشان داد که ۷۶.۵ درصد از پاسخ‌دهندگان تمایل به پرداخت برای بهبود مدیریت پسماند جامد (ISWM) در منطقه موردمطالعه داشتند. تجزیه‌وتحلیل رگرسیون لجستیک بر تمایل خانوارها به پرداخت برای پسماند ISWM نشان داد که سن، جنسیت، سطح تحصیلات، نوع خانواده، درآمد ماهانه و آموزش در مورد دفع زباله با تمایل به پرداخت رابطه مثبت دارند. این تحقیق به این نتیجه رسید که افراد با درآمد بالاتر تمایل بیشتری به پرداخت برای مدیریت بهتر پسماند دارند. نابرابری‌های اقتصادی بر مشارکت جامعه در مدیریت پسماند تأثیر می‌گذارد. اقدام فوری برای رسیدگی به مشکلات زیست‌محیطی و بهداشتی ناشی از دفع نامناسب زباله در کویته ضروری است.
نتیجه‌گیری: این مطالعه توصیه‌هایی را ارائه کرده است که شامل آغاز کمپین‌های آگاهی‌رسانی، بهبود سیستم‌های فاضلاب، جمع‌آوری منظم زباله و حمایت دولت از طرح شهر پاکیزه می‌شود.
