Welcome to the Egalitarian Erasmus Initiative! We are a collaborative effort within the Egalitarian SDG Challenge, part of the Erasmus+ Programme, bringing together students from:
- University of Brasília (Brazil)
- Aalborg University (Denmark)
- University of Minho (Portugal)
- Saxion University (Netherlands)
Our mission is to develop engineering and technological solutions that drive sustainability, particularly in waste management. We believe young people must be the protagonists for a sustainable future.
An Android mobile app designed for waste pickers, offering tailored educational content on finances, health, machinery operations, hygiene, and more. Aiming to enhance learning opportunities and align with SDG 4: Quality Education.
A platform to register waste for pickup and processing, reducing organic waste decomposition and methane emissions while promoting cleaner streets. Developed for implementation in Brasília.
DMS is a system that connects digital scales to cooperatives, automatically recording the weight of recyclables, the earnings of waste pickers, and a scoring system that incentivizes recycling while strengthening trust between cooperatives and waste pickers while encouraging recycling efforts.
