Since the dawn of time, people have struggled to find a lasting solution to the persistent problem of waste management and segregation. The amount and variety of waste produced globally has grown exponentially along with the ongoing rise in human population. As a result, there have been several studies conducted in this field, some of which have been supported by private organizations, NGOs, and governments. In order to protect the environment whiles progressively achieving global sustainable development, Pro-Environmental Behaviour (PEB) has been advocated as a universal personal endeavour. In affluent nations like the United States of America (USA), the United Kingdom (UK), and France, there is a lot of research on PEB. There is, however, a dearth of study on PEB in developing nations, the majority of which are found on the continent of Africa, where poor waste management and segregation is a major problem.The goal of this study is to better understand how university students at the University of Health and Allied Sciences (UHAS) in Ghana, a developing country, acquire and share knowledge on waste management and segregation. This will give further details on the main channels by which the student body communicates information about the environment. Also, it will allow us to do a chi-square analysis to ascertain the association between gender, academic level, and the students' garbage sorting. Ultimately, it investigates how students' attitudes or behaviours change after receiving thorough instruction on the significance of acting in an environmentally friendly manner. At first, the study gave more information about the effects of ineffective waste management and segregation.Following this is a literature review that focuses on defining pro-environmental behaviour, which is followed by a methodology that describes the tools to be used in this study. The following conclusions were drawn from the study: The association between a student's characteristics—such as gender and academic level—and their propensity to act in an environmentally friendly manner appears to be weak or even non-existent. Also, a subsequent examination on students' garbage sorting behaviour in relation to their academic level produced outcomes that were comparable to those of gender. The benefit of exhibiting a pro-environmental behaviour has been made clear to pupils, and it can be determined that they were ready to accept these standards after receiving this information.
