Dear Participant,
Thank you for participating in this survey. We are Syndicate 1, currently enrolled in the Post Graduate Diploma in General Management at the Gordon Institute of Business Science. As part of our research project, we are exploring the challenges people face when sorting waste at home, aligning with Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 12.5): Substantially reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling and reuse. Your honest insights will be crucial in understanding the factors that contribute to the perceived inconvenience of household waste sorting. This information will be used to develop strategies that can encourage greater participation and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Please note: All your responses will be kept strictly confidential.
Thank you for your time and contribution to this important research.
