Expression of Interest (EOI) Consultancy for the Design and Implementation of an E-waste Awareness Campaign in Kigali
- Rwanda
The Smart City Hub, in partnership with GIZ’s Digital Transformation Center and Enviroserve, are working together to demystify e-waste in Rwanda, create awareness of its environmental hazards, and increase the capacity of Enviroserve in e-waste collection and proper disposal in Rwanda.
The objective of this assignment
The main objectives of this assignment are as follows:
- Educate the Public on E-Waste and Its Dangers: This raises awareness about what constitutes e-waste and its harmful effects on the environment and human health if not properly managed. Further, this highlights the toxic materials in e-waste, such as lead, mercury, and dioxins, and their impact on air, soil, and water pollution.
- Promote Responsible E-Waste Disposal: This is to encourage proper e-waste disposal practices by informing the public about the availability and importance of certified e-waste recycling centres and discourage unsafe disposal methods like dumping, burning, or improper recycling.
- Highlight the Importance of Corporate Responsibility by urging businesses, especially electronics manufacturers, to implement take-back programs, eco-friendly designs, and sustainable end-of-life practices for their products. Further, this can foster partnerships between companies and recycling organizations to streamline e-waste management.
- Protect Vulnerable Communities from E-Waste Hazards: Raise awareness of the disproportionate impact of e-waste on low—and middle-income and marginalized communities in Rwanda by advocating for the protection of vulnerable groups, such as children and pregnant women, who are most affected by unsafe e-waste practices.
- Inspire Community Action and Participation: Mobilize communities to participate in e-waste collection drives, clean-up events, and awareness workshops in Kigali and, later, throughout Rwanda.
- Inspire community champions that foster a culture of environmental stewardship by encouraging individuals and organizations to take active roles in reducing e-waste or properly disposing of the e-waste.
These objectives aim to ensure that the cities actively engage stakeholders to effectively drive behavioural change, improve e-waste management, and contribute to a healthier societal environment.
