Cover Story: This study proposes an expert-guided framework for inclusive waste management in marginalized urban areas (MUAs), co-designed through consultations with 37 international experts and piloted in Reșița, Romania. The framework integrates community participation, institutional coordination, and infrastructural adaptation to enable context-sensitive, sustainable interventions. Emphasizing scalability and iterative improvement, it supports environmental justice, social equity, and operational efficiency. The model is structured for annual reassessment based on stakeholder feedback, contributing a replicable tool to advance inclusive and sustainable urban waste governance. View this paper
