NEEDED PROPER PRE-PROCESSING NEED TECHNICAL TRAINING NO RECYCLING OF NON-VALUABLES NO REGULATORY FRAMEWORK THE E-WASTE CHALLENGE

INDUSTRY EXPERTS WHAT WE DO ENTREPRENEURS Seed funding Technical assistance Int. recycling of complex/ hazardous fractions

OPERATIONAL MODEL COLLECTION MANUAL DISMANTLING AUTOMATED PRE-PROCESSING FOCUS MATERIAL SEPARATION INTERNATIONAL TRANSPORT TREATMENT

ICT E-WASTE COLLECTED & PROCESSED IN 2014

Known sources Known destinations Suspected destinations REVERSE FLOWS WITH BEST OF 2 WORLDS (Bo2W) Illegal e-waste streams WorldLoop reverse flows

Bo2W CHALLENGES NO NON-VALUABLES COLLECTION LOGISTICS SMALL VOLUME CASHFLOW ISSUES NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES CHERRYPICKING

WORLDLOOP’S SUPPORT IN Bo2W Challenges  Combat cherrypicking  Non-valuables collection  Notification procedures  Logistics  Small volumes  Cashflow Solutions E-Resource Certificates Project management Strategic partnerships Pre-financing

14 project supported 130+ green jobs created 10+ stakeholder activities UNIDO UNEP Step GWMP Global Compact WEEE Forum Basel Convention PACE Horizon 2020: E-waste Implementation Toolkit RESULTS & IMPACT Transboundary shipments tonnes e-waste collected 192+ tonnes complex e-waste spared from landfills –16 containers

CASE EXAMPLE : BENELUX AFRO CENTRE, DRC (PHASI) Active since 2013 Network of 15 collectors has been established for the collection of e- waste, in Kinshasa and Matadi 5 tonne e-waste collected; first shipment of complex fractions for end-processing at Umicore is pending final export approval Sensitisation campaigns (radio, TV) have been launched to raise awareness with the general public Strong working relationship and gov’t approval for activities in the sector of WEEE
