Abstract
The rapid development of tourism in this area has had a positive impact on the economic growth of the local community. However, the increase in the number of tourists also significantly impacts the volume of waste, organic and inorganic, generated daily. Waste problems in small island areas such as Gili are very complex due to limited land and inadequate waste management infrastructure. This research aims to comprehensively analyse the implementation of recycling and waste management programs on Gili Island. This research employs a descriptive quantitative approach to measure the level of implementation of recycling and waste treatment programs by the community, tourism businesses, and other relevant parties through the distribution of questionnaires with a measurable scale. The findings of this study indicate that the current efforts to implement recycling and waste management practices on the Gili Islands have not yet reached a level of effectiveness that could significantly address the environmental challenges faced by the region. The limited adoption and inconsistent execution of these programs suggest that there is still considerable room for improvement in promoting sustainable waste management among local businesses and communities. The findings of this research generate a set of constructive recommendations that can be utilized as practical guidance for policymakers, stakeholders, and local communities, with the ultimate aim of strengthening the overall framework of environmental governance in this ecologically fragile and vulnerable marine tourism area.
