The rapid urbanization witnessed in developing countries Asia and Africa has led to a substantial increase municipal solid waste (MSW) generation. However, the corresponding disposal strategies, along with constraints land resources finances, compounded by unorganized public behaviour, have resulted ineffective policy implementation monitoring. This lack of systematic targeted orientation, combined blind mapping, inefficient development many areas. review examines key challenges MSW management from 2012 2022, drawing insights 171 academic papers. Rather than solely focusing on recycling, study proposes sorting at source, optimization landfill practices, thermal treatment measures, strategies capitalize value as more pertinent solutions aligned local realities. Barriers optimizing systems arise socio-economic factors, infrastructural limitations, cultural considerations. emphasizes importance integrating area into circular economy framework, focus enhancing citizen participation reduction promoting recycling initiatives, seeking economic assistance international organizations.
