About the event 

Singapore’s Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment and National Environment Agency (NEA) launched an e-waste management system on 1 July 2021 to provide the public with convenient and accessible avenues to recycle their e-waste. The system is based on the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) approach where obligated companies bear the physical and financial responsibility for their e-waste when it has reached its end-of-life. At this webinar session, we discuss the efforts and how each of us can contribute to the e-waste management drive.
