One of the biggest challenges of current society is the proposition of solutions to the management of an excessive amount of waste generated every day. The realization of social and environmental impacts accumulated over years of omission has resulted in an increasing concern about this topic, renowned by its political scenario insertion, as confirmed by the National Policy of Solid Waste (NPSW). The laboratory chemical waste generation in High Education institutions has attracted the attention of researchers from all over the country, since there is lack of procedures that ensure appropriate waste management. Although they can be considered as weak sources of waste generation when compared with industrial activity, they must be pioneers in creating new solutions and considering their role in knowledge production and professional training. The study was produced for UNESP Rio Claro and it aimed to diagnose the Campus reality and to prepare a Chemical Waste Management Plan (CWMP) proposal, based on the (CWMP). The study showed the existence of ninety two laboratories making use of, at least, one hundred and seventy three distinct chemical products, given that 43% were classified as hazardous. In addition, 62% of the checked laboratories reported any sort of management difficulty, hence, the urgency in proposing solutions. It is believed that the CWMP measures implementation (considering existing procedures, practices and structures) will be a milestone towards the positive contribution of a change of mind regarding chemical waste management
