This e-waste management action plan by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) provides guidance for UNHCR with regards to e-waste management in displaced persons settings. Therefore, it elaborates on the role of extended producers’ responsibility (EPR) and several e-waste take back models. Furthermore, it provides an estimate on related costs for collection and sound end-of-life management of used and end-of-life solar lanterns and other small e-waste. Finally, recommendations for implementation are given.
