Abstrak
The urban waste problem has spurred the emergence of various community-based initiatives to support the zero-waste movement. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of the Great and Green Community's role in supporting the zero-waste movement in Yogyakarta City. The study used a qualitative descriptive approach through observation, interviews, and documentation of community activities centered in the Warungboto Public Green Open Space (RTHP). The results show that the Great and Green Community plays four main roles: facilitative, educational, representational, and technical. The facilitative role is evident in the initiation of the Tegal Hijau Lestari Farmers Group, the facilitation of waste management facilities, and liaison between the community and various partners such as government, academics, and other communities. The educational role is carried out through outreach, training, and digital campaigns via social media to raise public awareness of sustainable waste management. The representational role is reflected in the community's involvement in cross-institutional discussion forums, while the technical role is realized through organic waste processing, maggot cultivation, and collaborative program management. The most dominant roles are educational and facilitative because they are able to encourage collaboration and community participation in the zero-waste movement, despite challenges such as limited resources and member participation.
