dc.description.abstract | This academic thesis aims to thoroughly examine solid waste management (SWM) practices in Central Hunza's mountainous region, with a specific focus on the harmful impacts caused by open dumping. The primary goal is to provide insights that can lead to the development of sustainable solutions tailored to the area's unique geographical challenges. The research will explore current waste management methods and their impacts on the environment. Additionally, it will identify potential pathways for implementing sustainable waste management practices that align with Central Hunza's delicate ecosystem. Central Hunza faces a significant challenge due to mismanaged solid waste, particularly through open dumping, which threatens its natural beauty and contaminates air, soil, and water. This thesis will analyze existing waste management techniques, from basic disposal methods to advanced treatment facilities, to understand their strengths, weaknesses, and gaps. By doing so, it aims to improve waste management practices in mountainous regions. Moreover, the study seeks to propose sustainable solutions tailored to Hunza's needs by drawing from both global best practices and local knowledge. | en_US |
