E WASTE MANAGEMENT WORKSHOP

GD Goenka Public School, Sector 48, Gurugram, organised an informative and engaging workshop on “E-Waste Management” for students of Classes VI and VII on 22 October 2026. The session was conducted by Ms. Shivani Pandey, an environmentalist and sustainability expert with experience in e-waste management and environmental awareness.

The workshop aimed to sensitise students to the growing problem of electronic waste and its harmful impact on the environment. Students learned about the importance of managing discarded electronic devices, such as mobile phones, computers, batteries and other electronic equipment, responsibly. The resource person explained how improper disposal of e-waste can contribute to environmental pollution and why it is essential to follow safe and sustainable disposal practices.

The session emphasised the three principles of Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, encouraging students to make thoughtful choices, extend the life of electronic devices, avoid unnecessary consumption and ensure that e-waste reaches authorised recycling channels. Through practical insights and awareness-building activities, students understood how individual efforts can collectively make a significant difference.

The workshop was an enriching learning experience that encouraged students to become mindful consumers and environmentally responsible citizens. It reinforced the message that small actions can create a big impact and inspired students to contribute towards a cleaner, greener and more sustainable future.
