Abstract

Environmental development is one of the pillars of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which aims to manage natural resources and the environment in a sustainable manner. Currently, both household and industrial waste are one of the causes of environmental damage due to environmental pollution. This study aims to describe the environmental literacy activities organized by Kampoeng Recycle, Jember to foster environmental awareness behaviour. This study used a qualitative approach with descriptive methods, in order to obtain a description of environmental literacy activities in household waste management. The informants of this study were the managers of the Kampoeng Recycle and the Kampoeng Recycle Community. The data analysis technique used the Miles and Huberman model, namely through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that literacy activities related to household waste management by Kampoeng Recycle involved all levels of society, both children, adolescents and adults. Environmental literacy activities include waste class activities, recycling camps, recycling gardens and waste recycling skills.
