Cities are ecosystems with social, economic, environmental and, most importantly, structural dimensions, as they have become an urban morphological and physiological characterized by the consumption and dumping of what they do not need, especially household waste due to its association with the daily activities of the population, which has become a major threat to the environment, and the concept of sustainable development has emerged as a concept that aims to achieve economic development and social well-being with the least possible consumption of natural resources and minimal environmental damage and pollution, especially waste pollution, which the environment in its various elements has become unable to dispose of it, given its high quantity and different constitution of waste. In Algeria, most of its cities, especially Constantine, face many shortcomings in managing and treating household waste domain, which prompted it to adopt a policy of sustainable management by enacting laws, and supported by various public institutions and national programs and local plans, this policy resulted projects related to the sustainable management of household waste and its treatment by scientific and safe environmentally ways. Our study included an analysis of the reality of household waste in the city, which showed that the city still relies on traditional management, and therefore the concept of sustainable development has not been realized even slightly in the management field, and in terms of achieving the performance of sustainable development indicators from the environmental, institutional and financial aspects, it was found that the performance is poor and the service
provided to the population is poor also, and therefore, convergence and interaction must be created between the administration, private traders and residents to clarify the sustainable development concept in the household waste management field to ensure the achievement of its goals in the city.
