DK Osseo-Asare : What a scrapyard in Ghana can teach us about innovation


DK Osseo-Asare at TEDGlobal 2017  (transcript)
What a scrapyard in Ghana can teach us about innovation
Summary
I was sorry that l thought that the story was just about trash that you threw away was recycled, though, it's wrong.

In the last of the story, the speaker tells us that Agbogbloshie is where the largest electronic waste dump in the world has to be corrected. It's because in there, those scraps are not something that no longer has any value but something that people can recover and remake. It leads to learning and businesses.

A completely new cycle is born innovationally. People think and learn how to collect effectively electric material, how to make it vital substances, arts, and ornaments.  It becomes businesses, though, it's too difficult. If we teach electron structure, if we bring something after classifying, they can do business more. We need to know about wastes that we throw and we must cooperate educationally and commercially.
