| dc.description.abstract | Solid waste management practices in Bole sub city is un satisfactory and incomplete as illegal dumping of solid waste in open areas, in gullies , river courses and streets seen in daily life of residents. considering this, study is aimed at the overall assessment of the existing solid waste management practices of Addis Ababa city with particular reference to Bole sub city. In order to accomplish these objectives, the researcher used both primary and secondary sources. Bole sub city sanitation administration is the responsible institution to take over solid waste management practices of the sub city. Solid waste management activity in bole sub city takes place in two cycles. The first cycle is door to door collection and transportation of solid waste to transfer stations. This can be done by cooperative partnership associations. The second cycle is transportation of solid waste from transfer station to “koshe” disposal site and can be done by sub city sanitation administration. “Koshe” disposal site is generally described as open and unsanitary landfill that has different problems to environment and the community. The finding of this study revealed that the present status of Bole sub city solid waste management is poor. Institutional related problems, cooperative partnership association related problems, and limited participation of stake holders are the major factors that limits the proper solid waste management practice of Bole sub city.Therefore, the best ways that used to tackle the above problems are: giving training to cooperative partnership association and sanitation administration employees, developing institutional structure that have capacity to implement integrated MSWM approach which recognizes and comprises all stakeholders. | en_US |
