Programme nearbyCommunityBrasiliaLearn computer repair from discarded electronicsLearn computer repair from discarded electronics Reciclotech is not only a drop-off scheme. At the Programando o Futuro headquarters in Gama, donated e-waste is the teaching material for free, fully practical courses in basic IT, computer maintenance, and robotics. This is vocational training in a workshop, not a same-day museum oficina. What you can do - Read how the courses run on SECTI Reciclotech and Programando o Futuro: Reciclotech - Enrol through programandoofuturo.org.br/cursos or in person at QI 06 Lotes 20/80, Setor de Indústria, Gama Leste - Bring copies of ID and proof of address (a guardian's documents if you are under 18) - Arrive as a young person or adult: the official public is jovens e adultos, from first job through requalification How it works Programando o Futuro executes Reciclotech under Termo de Colaboração nº 05/2023 with SECTI-DF and FAP-DF (signed 29 December 2023). Classes are 100% practical and in person at the Gama industrial-sector site. The programme is in its third edition. Do not treat a single news vacancy round as the current intake: check the executor's course page for open groups. Why it matters A discarded laptop that teaches someone to rebuild the next one is worth more than a sermon about waste. Skills stay in the neighbourhood; machines stay in use.trainingelectronicsrepair +2
Programme nearbyRepair & ReuseBrasiliaRefurbish and donate computers for digital inclusionRefurbish and donate computers for digital inclusion Machines that still have a working life do not have to become scrap. Reciclotech reconditions electroelectronics: clean, swap parts, install software, test, then pass them to public bodies and nonprofits that run digital inclusion. What cannot be repaired is recycled or sent to adequate disposal. What you can do - Drop working or broken IT at a Reciclotech PEV so it can enter the workshop - If you represent a nonprofit that teaches digital skills, read who can request a donation and send the ofício through the contacts on the Reciclotech pages (identify the organisation, how many machines, and the inclusion work) - Public schools, hospitals, and community labs are the intended next owners, not a private resale shelf How it works What Reciclotech is describes reconditioning as recovery of damaged goods by cleaning, replacing parts, or small repairs, plus recycling that turns residue into inputs. Decreto 41.859/2021 already named Estações de Metarreciclagem, Pontos de Inclusão Digital, and Polos de Formação as the public pathway. Lei 7.913/2026 keeps donation for inclusion as a programme objective. Do not quote stock numbers from news: they belong to earlier phases and are not on the pages cited here. Why it matters A refurbished tower in a classroom is the circular economy you can sit down at. Repair plus gift beats a lecture about the digital divide.refurbishmentdonationcomputers +1
