Policy development continues to face challenges, including frequent policy changes and a lack of systematic planning. Sangha organizations, together with local administrative bodies such as the Subdistrict Administrative Organization (SAO), play an important role in building collaborative networks with academics and government agencies to drive these efforts. Policy recommendations emphasize the continuous development of teachers and educational personnel, the promotion of Buddhist well-being, the creation of educational innovations, and the integration of technology into the propagation of Buddhism.

This article aims to present waste management processes in metropolitan areas to sustainably reduce pollution. Given the significant impact of environmental pollution on people’s quality of life, effective and sustainable waste management is crucial. A synthesis of relevant literature and an empirical study of waste management contexts reveal approaches used in metropolitan areas to sustainably reduce pollution

These include: (1) reducing waste at the source by raising public awareness and promoting behavioral change through reuse and reduction campaigns, encouraging the selection of environmentally friendly products, creating incentives, and organizing activities such as waste-free community contests or awards for outstanding households to encourage participation; (2) waste sorting, reuse, and recycling, as these practices add value to waste materials and significantly reduce the burden of waste disposal; (3) final waste treatment and disposal, including sanitary landfills, the use of incineration for energy generation, organic waste management, and the management of hazardous and infectious waste; and (4) networking and cooperation through the integration of all sectors, including government, private, educational, religious, and most importantly the public. This includes emphasizing the role of community leaders in raising awareness of the importance of waste management, as well as the use of geographic information systems (GIS) to manage waste sites and plan appropriate waste disposal.
