    Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), also known as e-waste, refers to waste originating from equipment that relies on electric current or electromagnetic fields for operation. The increasing generation of this waste, and the risk of environmental contamination posed by its constituent materials, represent current challenges that require the attention of government, institutions and the general population. For this reason, with the aim of providing more information about WEEE management in the city of Recife-PE, this research carried out an assessment of the current context of waste management in the city, in order to identify possible improvements, analyzing the types of waste collected, the functioning of companies, and potential sustainable destinations. In this context, six main companies responsible for managing this waste in the municipality were identified, offering collection services and voluntary drop-off points throughout Recife in partnership with other entities. The improvement proposals include strengthening reverse logistics by increasing collection points in strategic locations and encouraging technological innovation, in addition to implementing environmental education programs in both schools and communities.Furthermore, the creation of a municipal portal on WEEE and the development of public-private partnerships are essential for improving the management of this waste. Despite some initiatives, Recife still lags behind other cities, such as São Paulo-SP and Fernandes Pinheiro-PR, in terms of the legal framework and WEEE management practices, highlighting the need for greater public involvement and transparency in data dissemination. After the study, it was possible to affirm that it is necessary to expand investments in WEEE management, increase public-private partnerships, and promote public awareness throughenvironmental education.
