A guide on lobbying and advocacy on e-waste issues. The guide is intended for NGOs and civil society organisations wanting to make a positive change to e-waste policy and practice in their countries. The guide was authored by Computer Aid’s Environmental Advocacy Officer, Haley Bowcock and was financed by the European Union.
The guide has been designed to introduce both the concept of advocacy and the steps required to develop an effective campaign for positive change in policy and practice in the area of electronics and e-waste. It contains practical information for communication to politicians, the media and the general public and details the e-waste lobbying strategies of civil society organisations in the EU. The guide is currently available in six languages English, Serbian, Croatian, Macedonian, Albanian and Bulgarian.
