Summary:
|
This proposed ITU-T Recommendation, titled "E-Waste Lifecycle Integrity and Accountability," introduces a structured approach to strengthen transparency, traceability, and responsible handling across the entire e-waste lifecycle—from collection to final disposal. With the increasing use of digital technologies in waste management, the proposal emphasizes the importance of operational integrity, data handling responsibility, and role-based accountability. It aims to fill existing gaps by guiding stakeholders on best practices for environmentally sound, secure, and accountable e-waste management systems that support long-term sustainability and compliance.
