ICT- Waste Management

The University of Warith Al-Anbiyaa (UOWA) leverages digital technologies and active student engagement to strengthen its waste management programmes. By integrating ICT tools with hands-on participation, the university enhances planning, monitoring, and awareness, fostering a culture of sustainability across campus.
ICT-Enabled Practices:
•    3R Digital Strategy: Annual targets for organic and inorganic waste reduction are tracked digitally.
•    Smart Recycling Infrastructure: Colour-coded bins equipped with fill-level sensors and QR/RFID tracking ensure accurate segregation at the source.
•    Central Dashboard: Monitors recycling rates, waste generation, and carbon footprint in real time.
•    Digital Awareness Campaigns: Student portals, mobile notifications, and social media promote composting, recycling, and reuse.
•    Workflow Integration: Collection schedules and municipal coordination are digitised for efficiency.
Student Engagement & Awareness:
•    Sustainability Week: Students participate in eco-friendly fundraising and create crafts from repurposed materials.
•    Competitions and Workshops: Recycling challenges and interactive workshops reinforce sustainable habits.
•    Community Awareness Campaigns: Year-round initiatives educate students and staff on responsible waste practices and 3R principles.
Impact:
•    Encourages active participation and behavioural change among students and staff.
•    Enhances efficiency, transparency, and accountability in waste management.
•    Supports SDG 6 (Clean Water & Sanitation), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities & Communities), and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).
•    ICT data helps measure and continuously improve waste management performance.
Future Plans:
•    Expand digital monitoring to include more detailed e-waste and hazardous waste tracking.
•    Increase student-led initiatives and integrate feedback systems into digital dashboards.
