RiseUp4E-Waste

VVDAV has been continuously working in the direction towards creating awareness about the hazards and ill- effects of E-waste amongst its students and teachers fraternity. Our school has conducted many E-waste collection drives and given the waste thus collected to E-waste recycling companies. In this way we are also working towards SDG 12.

Since last year our school has joined a wonderful collaborative programme RiseUp4E-Waste.

It was a project in which our school children had participated in various competitions and events such as article and poem writing, video making, poster making etc. The programme organizers have also conducted many webinars and workshops to educate all about the judicious disposal of E-waste. We participated in quizzes and even a virtual tour to an E-waste recycling plant was also conducted. These all served as an eye opener and has enlightened us about wise handling of E-waste and has made us conscious global citizens.
