CONCEPT

An online platform that endeavours to act as a facilitator between various stakeholders in the e-waste reverse logistics supply chain

02.

RESEARCH

Some of the major problems that have gone unaddressed are the leakages due to lack of proper supply chain in reuse/recycle markets. Currently, e-waste recycling activities that take place at the beginning of the recycling chain (e.g., collection, repair, refurbishment, dismantling, segregation) are carried out predominantly in the informal sector and they remain disconnected with the formal sector.
