Popis: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of waste banks in strengthening the Healthy Living Community Movement (GERMAS) during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study is a qualitative descriptive study that analyzes waste management through the waste bank program in strengthening the Healthy Living Community Movement (GERMAS) during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as a review of pertinent legislation and regulations. This article is based on secondary legal materials, such as books, journals, essays, and other written works from print and digital media, as well as field occurrences. The findings revealed that community-based waste management is a waste management technique that relies on the active participation of the community. The government and other institutions only serve as motivators and facilitators. Savings and loans, paying for electricity with garbage, caring for the environment, and recycling are all advantages of a waste bank. This suggests that the Waste Bank, as a source of community assistance, has the potential to improve socioeconomic conditions while also empowering the community in waste management and strengthening the Germas program during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
