ECOSWEEE project unlocks best practices for small e-waste and batteries collection
ECOSWEEE emphasises the importance of engaging retailers as key facilitators, and prioritising user convenience to create sustainable, scalable collection models. A combination of incentives, as opposed to one single incentive, is more effective in collecting more end-of-use items. Incentives can stimulate participation but are never the sole success driver - infrastructure, demographics, and legislation have a strong impact too.
