dc.description.abstractWaste on Mount Everest, both intentional and unintentional, is a significant concern. The study, based on a site visit and interviews with residents, business owners, tourists, and government officials, highlights the region’s severe waste management issues. Key problems include the rising number of tourists, inadequate information, limited waste management infrastructure, and a lack of collective commitment. Stakeholders are not contributing effectively to the site’s sustainability as a tourist destination. There is a general lack of awareness about safe waste disposal among residents and tourists. Despite local belief that public authorities are trying to improve the situation, articulation among stakeholders is insufficient.eng
