ABOUT THE YOUTH EXCHANGE
In this program, we will explore the realm of technology and its impact on our world. Our focus will be on analyzing the ever-growing issue of e-waste and uncovering the negative aspects that technology poses to our planet. Through engaging workshops, thought-provoking discussions, and interactive activities, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the environmental consequences caused by the rapid advancement of technology. We will explore the life cycle of electronic devices, from production and consumption to disposal, shedding light on the ecological footprint left behind at each stage. Together, we will examine the consequences of e-waste, such as resource depletion, toxic pollution, and electronic waste dumping. Throughout the project, we will also go deeper into the positive aspects of technology, seeking to strike a balance between innovation and environmental responsibility.
