Abstract
Surabaya, with an area of 326.37 km2 and 2.7 million inhabitants, is one of the most advanced cities in Indonesia in environmental management. In 2008, community-based waste management accounted for almost 25% of the city's total generated waste at 2,185 ton/day, contributing to a 10% reduction in waste going to final disposal site from 2006-2008. This article examines how Surabaya expanded their CBWM to reach this rate, through a closer look at a partnership program known as the Green and Clean Program. The aim is to identify factors that influenced CBWM replication. We identified that the influencing factors are multi-dimensional, involving SWM aspects (participation, technical, financial, managerial, and institutional), actors (community, government, private sector), time (scaling up stages), and space (neighborhood, city), among other dimensions. We concluded that adoption of a similar CBWM program in another place should consider these multi-dimensional factors.
