Effective waste management is essential for sustainable development, particularly as e-waste emerges as one of the fastest-growing and most hazardous waste streams globally. With projections indicating an increase from 53.6 million metric tons in 2019 to 74.7 million by 2030, managing e-waste demands urgent attention. The study explores how circular economy principles, focused on reduction, reuse, and recycling, can address environmental and health risks associated with e-waste, especially in countries like India. It also reviews the evolution of India’s policy framework, including the E-waste (Management) Rules, 2016, and its recent amendments to enhance formal recycling systems and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). Using literature review and case study methods, the chapter analyzes successful international models from countries like Germany, Japan, and Switzerland, highlighting best practices in stakeholder coordination, public awareness, and advanced recycling technologies. Key findings include the success of well-structured EPR systems, the critical role of Producer Responsibility Organizations (PROs), and the need for integrating informal recyclers into formal systems. The study proposes a flexible, scalable framework tailored to the needs of developing countries, emphasizing inclusive governance, localized innovation, and policy-driven adoption of sustainable e-waste management practices.
