The flyer shows a person walking through a massive dumpsite, carrying a heavy sack on their back. The sky is cloudy, and buildings are faintly visible in the distance, making it clear this is an urban setting. The text announces new research titled “Lead Exposure from E-Waste: A Case Study of Dandora Dumpsite – Nairobi Kenya” by Charity Ndanu. The image conveys the harsh reality of scavenging in unsafe environments and highlights the health risks of electronic waste.
The flyer is an informational poster about electronic waste in Kenya. It explains that large amounts of e-waste are exported from developed countries to lower-income countries like Kenya. Because of poor waste management, most of it ends up in dumpsites such as Dandora, contaminating soil, water, and air. The poster emphasizes that children and communities suffer long-term health consequences from this exposure. It advocates for solutions such as public education, take-back schemes, stronger monitoring systems, and AI-supported interventions to prevent lead exposure rather than just reacting to it.

Most electronics aren’t safely recycled in #Kenya, leading to widespread lead contamination in soil, water, and air. Learn more www.humanrightsresearch.org/post/lead-ex...
