    To celebrate the 5th edition of International E-Waste Day, that will have the theme "Recycle it all, no matter how small!". This year, Electrão is joining efforts with WEEE Forum and its other members to understand the hoarding behaviour and lifespan of EEE in households with a study that will gives us data to tackle these recycling barriers. Based on this data, we are planning some awareness raising activities that will show the numbers, the impact of this action and his type of waste on the environment and the need for recycle all used electrical equipment towards a circular economy. Between 10th and 17th October, we are planning to launch: a press campaign with press releases, a social media and website campaign and a public activation using e-waste.

    To celebrate the 7th edition of International E-Waste Day, that will have the theme "join the e-waste hunt: retrieve, recycle and revive", Electrão is joining efforts with WEEE Forum and its other members to create a video that will show the motivations that lead people to recycle e-waste. We will also create a campaign in social media, with data, to sensitize people that don't recycle their e-waste to do so and to motivate them to find the hidden old electronic equipment they have in their draws and take them to the nearest recycling point.

    Between 11th and 14th October, we are planning to launch: a press campaign with press releases, a social media and website campaign and a market with several activities to help people give a new life to their old or broken electronics.

    Workshop

    Description: We are thrilled to invite you to our upcoming webinar, where we will be sharing invaluable insights from the ECOSWEEE Project. Join us to discuss what are best practices in the field of small WEEE and batteries collection and how they can be replicated.

    Through this webinar, we aim to shed light on successful collection initiatives in 9 EU Member states (+ the UK, CH, and NO) and the learnings from their implementation. Furthermore, we will present the findings from a customer survey we conducted in several Member States, providing valuable data on consumer behaviour towards such collection efforts and their points of view on how to incentivize the increase of the collection of small WEEE and batteries. Anyone interested in the collection of small WEEE and batteries should not miss this opportunity to learn, connect, and share your own insights
