The second phase will entail developing an application guide on how to manage e-waste at individual and family level. The last phase will be continuous encouraging individuals and families to dispose of e-waste.

Progress meetings will be held once per week. The team will hold e-meeting to address the issue of distance and transport. This approach will save time and increase efficiency.
