Description:

Elektronikos perdirbimas will participate in International E-Waste Day 2025 by taking part in the radio and online program “What is Your CO2 Footprint?” on Žinių radijas (link). During the broadcast, we will raise awareness about the environmental risks of improper screen disposal and explain how displays and monitors are safely dismantled, separated, and sorted to enable further recycling.

As part of the campaign, Elektronikos perdirbimas will also engage with European Commission policy makers in an interview on the recyclability of displays. This high-level exchange will contribute to shaping EU approaches to display recycling while raising awareness of Lithuania’s role in advancing responsible e-waste management.

Description: Our proposed IEWD activity focuses on raising students’ awareness of e-waste pollution and responsible electronic waste management. The activity will be implemented in three steps. First, students will watch the YouTube video “What is E-Waste Pollution? | What Causes Electronic Waste?” and conduct short research on e-waste, critical raw materials, and management methods. Next, they will discuss in class how they personally manage e-waste and share practical ideas. Finally, students will write one key idea about e-waste management on a collaborative online Pinboard to exchange insights with partner schools. Teachers and project partners will collaborate to create and share a student poll titled “How do you handle your own e-waste?” to encourage reflection and collective learning across the project network.
