The WEEE Forum is a international association of 51 e-waste producer responsibility organisations.

Core values

- **Global Impact on E-Waste Management**: The WEEE Forum has 51 members across six continents, collectively managing the collection, de-pollution, recycling, and reuse of electronic waste. They have collected, de-polluted, and recycled or prepared for reuse over 41.6 million tonnes of WEEE, with 3.1 million tonnes collected in 2022 alone[2][4].
- **Promotion of Circular Economy**: The WEEE Forum is at the forefront of implementing the circularity principle, which aims to reduce consumption, promote reuse and recycling, and minimize waste. This approach aligns with broader societal goals of sustainability and environmental protection[2][5].
- **Awareness and Education**: The organization engages in awareness-raising activities, such as International E-Waste Day, to educate the public about the importance of proper e-waste management. This helps in changing consumer behavior and promoting responsible waste handling[4].
- **Improvement in Quality of Life**: By reducing the environmental impact of e-waste, the WEEE Forum contributes to a cleaner and healthier environment, which directly improves the quality of life for communities worldwide.
- **Community Well-being**: The efficient management of e-waste reduces pollution, conserves resources, and supports the health and well-being of communities. This is particularly significant in regions where improper e-waste disposal can lead to serious health and environmental issues.
