Against the background of an arguable dearth of scholarship on the sociocultural dimensions of Nigeria's solid waste management strategies and practices, this rapid review searched for evidence in the literature. A rapid evidence review and qualitative meta-summary procedure were implemented to utilize the rigor of systematic literature review that met the timelines and limited funding available for this study. It is more appropriate to identify, extract, and synthesize a mixture of qualitative and/or quantitative empirical evidence in the literature. This rapid review found little substantive evidence of scholarly sociocultural approaches in Nigeria's solid waste management. It also discovered constant factors of inadequate and weak multidisciplinary or non-holistic approaches to driving innovation and effective social impact in Nigeria's solid waste management practices. The results were interpreted vis-à-vis the need to leverage the social sciences, particularly the range and scope of social work practice configurations and possibilities, to scientifically advance and substantially accelerate the implementation of evidence-based policy and practice in Nigeria's solid waste management system. This rapid review concluded that the negative results are due to the insufficient conceptual and theoretical bases for Nigeria's solid waste management strategies and/or practices.
在尼日利亚固体废物管理策略和实践的社会文化层面的学术研究相对匮乏的背景下,本次快速审查在文献中寻找证据。为了利用符合本研究时间限制和有限资金的系统文献综述的严谨性,实施了快速证据审查和定性荟萃分析程序。在文献中识别、提取和综合定性和/或定量经验证据更为合适。本次快速审查发现,尼日利亚固体废物管理领域几乎没有关于学术社会文化方法的实质性证据。它还发现,尼日利亚固体废物管理实践中,创新和有效社会影响的驱动力一直存在多学科或非整体方法不足和薄弱的因素。结果根据需要利用社会科学,特别是社会工作实践配置和可能性的范围和范围,从科学上推进和大大加快尼日利亚固体废物管理系统中基于证据的政策和实践的实施进行了解释。本次快速审查得出结论,负面结果是由于尼日利亚固体废物管理策略和/或实践的概念和理论基础不足。
