The town’s dynamic is reflected in relative demographic growth and consumption patterns that are conducive to the formation of landfill sites. These landfills are the source of numerous environmental consequences and risk factors for local residents. The aim of this article is to analyze the dysfunctions in the solid waste sector caused by the interplay of actors. It draws on secondary data from the state of the art on the subject and primary data collected from 305 households and 89 actors in the sector between September 2022 and March 2023, as part of an ongoing thesis. These data show that the interplay of actors contributes to the malfunctioning of pre-collection and secondary collection, and remains a factor in the proliferation of illegal dumpsites.展开更多
