BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The rapid increase in electronic waste has created increasingly complex environmental and health challenges, especially in developing countries like Indonesia. The study objectives were to analyze the relationships and influences of the levels of awareness and accessibility of electronic waste management facilities on household consumer participation, while accounting for socioeconomic factors, demographics, and the region's spatial characteristics.METHODS: This study uses a quantitative, cross-sectional survey design to examine household consumers living near electronic waste management facilities in Indonesia. Data analysis was conducted using Spearman correlation to test the relationship between variables, ordinary least square regression to analyze the effect of awareness and accessibility on the level of participation, Kruskal-Wallis test to determine differences, and Geographic Information System-based spatial analysis to evaluate the role of distance and accessibility of recycling facilities in the effectiveness of electronic waste management systems.FINDINGS: Consumer awareness of the consequences of electronic waste showed a significant positive correlation with the intention to manage electronic waste, with a correlation coefficient of ۰.۳۴۰, but showed no significant correlation with actual behaviour, with a correlation coefficient of only ۰.۰۶۷. Accessibility showed a significant positive correlation with both intention and actual behaviour, with correlation coefficients of ۰.۱۹۷ and ۰.۴۱۶, respectively. Accessibility was the strongest predictor of actual behaviour, with a standardized coefficient of ۰.۴۴۹, followed by awareness of consequences, with a standardized coefficient of ۰.۱۸۲. The Kruskal-Wallis test confirmed significant differences in intention and actual behaviour across accessibility levels, with chi-square values of ۱۱.۶۷ and ۳۵.۹۱, respectively. Spatial analysis using the nearest neighbour method produced a nearest neighbour ratio of ۰.۶۰ with a negative z score of ۱۰.۰۱. This findings confirming that consumers with higher awareness and participation are significantly clustered rather than randomly distributed, and generally reside within the accessible range of electronic waste facilities, with average distances of ۱۰ to ۳۰ kilometres and travel times of ۱۰ to ۳۰ minutes. CONCLUSION: The findings underscore the need for electronic waste management policies that prioritise facility accessibility and spatially based approaches to strengthen community participation within a circular economy framework.
