Between June 28 and July 24, 2013, a campaign for the collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) from the population was organized in rural areas of Suceava County. The campaign, organized by ECOTIC and Ecorec Recycling Bacau in partnership with the Environmental Protection Agency Suceava, aimed at increasing the involvement and awareness of local public administration and of the rural population in the county in the selective collection of these types of wastes.
The program also included an information and educational side as well as a practical component, meaning the separate collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment by offering to the licensed collector solutions to a public issue still unsolved: separate collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment.
In the aboved mentioned period an Ecorec Recycling van passed through the villages that were included in the project. The population was encouraged to hand over WEEE.
The organizers stimulated the environmentally-minded population with symbolic prizes.
The participating villages were: Drăguşeni, Vadu Moldovei, Boroaia, Bogdăneşti, Mălini, Fântâna Mare, Păltinoasa, Drăgoieşti, Rădăşeni, Capu Câmpului, Ciprian Porumbescu, Cacica, Pârteştii de Jos, Botoşana and Suceviţa.
