Abstract

The clean water and sanitation crisis has become a serious problem in various regions in Indonesia due to increasing domestic and industrial waste pollution. This study aims to analyze the implementation of legal counseling on the protection of clean water sources conducted by law lecturers to the community and to identify its impact on increasing environmental legal awareness. The research method used is a sociological-juridical approach with data collection techniques through observation and interviews. The results indicate that legal counseling plays a significant role in increasing public knowledge about the right to clean water, obligations in managing household waste, and legal sanctions for polluters. However, its effectiveness is still hampered by low legal literacy and limited institutional support at the local level.
