Revision as of 13:15, 21 September 2022
This series of two webinars aims to shed light on the rising issue of e-waste in humanitarian settings as well as the complexity of e-waste management. The first webinar in the series will set the scene by introducing the challenge of e-waste management in the humanitarian context. The second webinar will then dive deeper and invite practitioners from different parts of the world to share their experiences in a panel discussion.
This webinar series is organized jointly by GIZ Energy Solutions for Displacement Settings program and GPA Coordination Unit.
Webinar 1: Understanding E-waste in Humanitarian Contexts
The first webinar in the series provides an introduction to the issue of e-waste in humanitarian contexts. A joint presentation by UNITAR/GPA and GIZ ESDS will capture the scale and complexity of the issue, along with introducing the e-waste value chain in the humanitarian context. A presentation by the University of Edinburgh will then focus on the technical aspects of e-waste management. This will be followed by a presentation from IOM on the E-waste Project in Bidi Bidi refugee camp in Uganda. The webinar will close with a Q&A with the audience.
Date/Time: 02 November at 14:00 CEST (check your local time)

Presenters: Elif Demir, UNITAR/GPA; Lucas Kürten, GIZ ESDS; Jaime Cross, University of Edinburgh; Gemma Arthurson, IOM
Second in the series, this webinar dives deeper into the policy landscape for e-waste management in displacement contexts. A detailed presentation on Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) followed by a panel discussion on sharing concrete policy examples from the ground will be shared. Practitioners from different countries will also showcase their experiences and learnings, along with an open Q&A session with the audience.
