Documenting, integrating and scaling global informal e-waste sectors (Panel Discussion)
India has implemented a national Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) framework – but one critical gap remains: the exclusion of informal sector workers, who currently process the majority of the country’s electronic waste. In 2024, Landbell GreenForest Solutions, E[co]work, and Minimise have joined forces to address this challenge, piloting collection and traceable documentation of 18 tons of e-waste by informal workers. The project culminated in a white paper detailing actionable insights. This panel brings together the key players behind the initiative to explore the next frontier: how to scale informal sector inclusion across the electronics value chain while ensuring transparency, compliance, and impact.
