Agbocycle-race the waste out!

Agbogbloshie is one of the biggest e-Waste disposal sites of the world are located.
Every day there end up more and more useless mobile phones, computers and other e-waste – mainly from Europe.
To get the valuable raw materials the people who are living on the disposal rely on drastic measures. By burning the waste the precious metal gets accessible, so it is a common process. However, this does not just endanger the environment but also the people’s own physical health.
"Agbocycle" is a social project of the students community Enactus Ruhr- Universität e.V, that wants to introduce a safe and environmental friendly method of recycling on illegal e-waste disposal sites in Ghana.
Currently we are collecting money to finance a workshop as well as protective clothing and tools. After the construction`s completion first employees will be teached to recycle the waste manually in a pleasent environment, that also provides regular income.
