Indonesia, the fourth most populous country in the world with over 250 million people, is facing significant challenges in waste management, particularly as it rapidly urbanizes. Between 2000 and 2010, the country experienced an annual urban population growth of about 3%, leading to development gaps in the provision of basic services and infrastructure, notably in solid waste management (SWM). In 2019, Indonesia's waste generation reached 67.1 million tonnes, with an annual increase of 1.3% from 2010 to 2019.
