Kata Kunci: Pengetahuan, Pengelolaan Sampah, Kangpisman ABSTRACT One of the health problems that often occurs in society is waste management. The modern trend in waste management is currently focusing on how it can be managed properly from each source, so that the volume of waste taken to final disposal sites is reduced. This trend takes the form of a movement, collaboration between the government, citizens, the private sector and others in waste management through activities to reduce (kang), separate (pis) and utilize (man) waste. Kotawetan Village, especially RW 02, is a student-assisted RW located in the Garut Kota District area. Based on the results of a survey carried out by students, they found that the environmental conditions were not good, there was a lot of rubbish strewn about and there was a lack of rubbish storage areas and waste disposal that was still not sorted. This is possible because there are still many people who are not aware of cleanliness. The aim of this activity is to increase public knowledge about waste management through the kangpisman movement. The results of the activity showed an increase in public knowledge about waste management by 28 points. It is hoped that the activities that have been carried out can be continued independently by the community according to the knowledge they already have so that the community can implement the kangpisman movement from their household. Sub-district heads and heads of community health centers can facilitate the community in implementing waste management through the kangpisman movement.
