The study highlights the importance of education, citizen participation and the effective policies and strategies to improve solid waste management in homes. It is concluded that theoretical knowledge is essential to design effective and sustainable strategies to improve solid waste management practices in homes in different contexts.

CUADERNO URBANO ratifies the Open Access model in which the contents of scientific publications are available in full text free of charge on the Internet, without temporary embargoes, and whose editorial production costs are not transferred to the authors.
