MARQUEZ GONZALEZ, Antonio Romualdo; RAMOS PANTOJA, María Elena y MONDRAGON JAIMES, Verónica Alejandra. Percepción ciudadana del manejo de residuos sólidos municipales: El caso Riviera Nayarit. Región y sociedad [online]. 2013, vol.25, n.58, pp.87-121. ISSN 2448-4849.
The problems caused by the mismanagement of municipal solid waste (MSW) could generate economic and environmental conflicts in the socalled Nayarit Riviera, composed of the San Blas, Compostela, and Bahia de Banderas municipalities. Therefore, it is necessary to identify and fully resolve these issues, since the economy of these municipalities is mostly dependent on tourism and services. A survey was carried out to find out citizens' perception of MSW management, and the interviewees stated that the main, short-term impact would be a reduction of visitors if MSW are not handled properly. The perception of the sources, handling, and confinement of MSW was differentiated among the inhabitants of the area, and the community made proposals to improve integrated waste management.
