Restart e-waste programme

Electronic waste (e-waste) is an ever-growing problem in Africa. The hardware Viafrica supplies to schools and other clients, will finally break down there. Because Viafrica does not want to increase the e-waste problem, we already started negotiations with possible partners a while ago to come to a solution for this. That is not simple, because local processing is still in its infancy in Africa. Some parts cannot be processed locally and therefore have to be shipped to Europe to be processed here.
