Abstract | ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and economic activities are among the areas that are impacted by municipal solid waste management, or MSWM. Massive trash production and uneven management have made the problem worse in Uganda. Therefore, the purpose of this systematic review is to examine the legal and policy frameworks, practices, and difficulties related to MSWM in Uganda. A website search was performed to locate studies from 1995 to 2021. The Scopus and Web of Science databases, as well as Google Scholar, were utilized to look for published and unpublished studies from 2005 to 2021. Only the English language was included in the search. The parameters of the produced study were used to extract the study. The AMSTAR 2 was used to evaluate the listed studies' risk of bias. Seventy two (72) studies were determined to be qualified out of the 1135 records that were identified. Several legal frameworks that improve MSWM implementation in Uganda, which is primarily concerned with garbage collection, transportation, and disposal, were found by this systematic review. The primary obstacles were a lack of capability, public awareness, policy enforcement, and stakeholder cooperation. In Uganda, MSWM issues have become more prevalent in recent times and are having an impact on the day-to-day lives. Thus, these results could contribute to the enhancement of MSWM in Uganda. |
