About The E-Waste Project
iTrash Technology Limited has partnered with Gold Cedi to reduce electronic waste (e-waste) in Ghana. The collaboration kicked off in the Western Region, with plans to tour the entire country to raise awareness and launch the comprehensive project. The initiative aims to revolutionize waste management practices and encourage sustainable waste disposal and recycling methods.
The partnership between iTrash and Gold Cedi is a significant step in addressing the increasing environmental and health concerns associated with e-waste. Ghana has long been a hub for electronic waste, with much of it being improperly discarded, leading to soil and water contamination, and posing serious health risks to local communities. Through this initiative, iTrash Technology Limited seeks to create a cleaner, greener future by promoting responsible e-waste management.
Revolutionizing Waste Management
As part of the partnership, iTrash and Gold Cedi are working together to develop innovative solutions to minimize waste and maximize sustainability. They are focusing on reducing landfill waste, fostering a culture of sustainability, and providing educational resources to the public. The initiative is a response to the growing need for comprehensive waste management practices in Ghana, where electronic waste is a significant challenge.
Speaking to newsalertgh.com, Gregory Ankrah, Founder and Team Lead at iTrash Technology Limited, highlighted the importance of the partnership, stating, “This collaboration with Gold Cedi is a major milestone in our journey towards a more sustainable Ghana. We are committed to promoting environmental stewardship and reducing e-waste through innovative solutions. Our mission is to revolutionize waste management practices, and this partnership is a crucial step in achieving that goal.”
A Nationwide Tour to Raise Awareness.
The partnership’s launch in the Western Region marks the beginning of a nationwide tour, during which iTrash and Gold Cedi will visit various regions to raise awareness about e-waste and the importance of responsible disposal and recycling. The tour will include workshops, community engagement events, and the launch of new waste management projects. The goal is to educate local communities about the environmental impact of e-waste and encourage sustainable practices.
Natalia Nana Ama Andoh, Head of Communications at iTrash Technology Limited, emphasized the importance of community engagement in the success of the project.
“We believe that change starts at the grassroots level,” she said. “By touring the country and engaging with local communities, we hope to inspire a culture of sustainability and encourage everyone to take responsibility for their waste.”
