Electronic waste, commonly known as "e-waste," refers to discarded electronic devices and electrical equipment that have reached the end of their useful life or are no longer wanted. E-waste includes a wide range of electronic and electrical products, such as computers, smartphones, tablets, televisions, printers, digital cameras, and other consumer electronics, as well as industrial and medical equipment. E-waste is a significant and growing environmental and health concern for several reasons such as toxic components , waste volüme , improper disposal and resource depletion. Creating an e- Twinning project focused on waste is a great way to raise awareness about environmental issues and engage students in a meaningful learning experience.
The students of Cuza Vodă National College from Husi, Romania, were happy that they were part of the project and that they had the opportunity to carry out other activities, activities that would highlight their creativity and team spirit.
As an e-twinning team, we are very happy to take part in this beautiful project. In fact, rather than a simple project, doing things that will help the bleeding wounds of our world; It makes us very happy to create an awareness about e-waste and take action, to create a structure that will be left as a legacy in addition to what we learn and apply.
We created an e-waste culture in our school by creating a public opinion with the promotions we made in our school and with the informative panels we created.
Our turkey map, which we made from the pieces evaluated as turkey, attracted a lot of attention and was developed in line with the ideas of students and teachers.
During this time, I would like to personally thank all my students who took part in every moment of the process.

I would like to thank all our project stakeholders.
