Abstract

Headquartered in the sub-region of the reconceive of Bahia, with its rectory located in the city of Cruz das Almas-BA, the Universidade Federal do Recôncavo da Bahia - UFRB has been developing and exercising its role in a positive way in society. However, the production of its urban solid waste grows exponentially, which justifies the need to study a new management strategy for this material. The article aims to present a proposal for integrated and sustainable management of urban solid waste - GISRSU to be implemented at UFRB. It is concluded that, despite being a complex task, environmental education programs for the reduction of waste at source, combined with the practices of selective collection and recycling can contribute to changes in the conduct of the people who pass through the institution and the success of the work.
