Abstract
The waste problem remains a serious problem in Indonesia, including in South Minahasa Regency. Various methods and programs for waste management have been implemented by the government, but waste remains a constant presence in people's lives. One method that still needs to be optimized is how the government, especially village governments, communicates with each other in waste management in Minahasa Regency. The government often fails to maximize its communication approach regarding the waste problem. The position of the village government is the closest to the community, so it is essential to have communication skills and good and appropriate communication methods in addressing the waste problem. The above problems serve as a basic reference for researchers to explore and examine how village government communication patterns in waste management in South Minahasa Regency. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method, as it will explore more human subjects as the main data source. The dominant communication patterns carried out by village governments in South Minahasa Regency related to waste management are mostly using wheel and chain communication patterns.
