Penta Helix Analysis on Coastal Waste Management Policy in Tanjungpinang City, Riau Islands Province

Abstract

Coastal waste handling is a crucial issue that has a major impact on environmental sustainability and the quality of life of the people in Tanjungpinang City, Riau Islands Province. This study examines the effectiveness of the implementation of coastal waste management policies using the Penta Helix model approach involving the government, the private sector, academia, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and civil society. Qualitative research methods are used with interview data collection techniques, observations, and document studies. The results of the study show that despite the existence of waste management regulations and programs, the success of policies is still constrained in coordination and cross-sectoral participation. A harmonious collaborative role according to the Penta Helix model is needed to realize effective and sustainable coastal waste management in this region. This research provides strategic recommendations to increase synergy between elements to support the sustainability of marine ecosystems and the quality of the coastal environment.
