The study employed the Research and Development (R&D) methodology through the ADDIE framework, grounded in 4R management principles. Data collection techniques included observation, documentation, and interviews. Data analysis utilized qualitative analysis methods. Results indicated that the development of the Integrated Waste Management Center successfully engages and motivates the campus community at Universitas Negeri Malang to demonstrate enhanced environmental responsibility in managing both organic and inorganic waste.
