Abstract
KKN research in Besole Village, Tulungagung, focused on improving waste management and waste utilization. Initially, serious problems related to waste management, such as flooding caused by river blockage by garbage, stood in the way because only a small percentage of residents were willing to participate with the environmental agency. Through research methods that include observation, interviews, socialization, and waste utilization practices, a significant increase in public awareness was achieved, especially in terms of sorting organic and inorganic waste. In addition, the practice of utilizing used cooking oil waste into aromatherapy candles provides concrete examples of how to manage waste by generating tangible economic benefits. These steps are expected to be the foundation for the improvement of the waste management system and encourage greater creativity and concern from the community in managing waste in the future.
