| Özet |
| The objectives of this study were assessment of information level of households regarding waste management, perception regarding recycling benefits, and assessment of willingness of households to participate in waste management. Data were collected through a well-prepared questionnaire from eight areas of Faisalabad. A stratified random sampling technique was used for this purpose. A sample of 240 respondents was selected and 30 respondents from each area. Descriptive statistics were applied to assess information level and perception about recycling benefits. Moreover, they were well aware of its use in recycling. Path analysis was applied to assess the willingness to participate in waste management. Results showed that space and price had a significant and positive impact on waste separation at a 5% significance level. The government needs to make new laws regarding waste management and public participation must be focused during making these laws. |
