Mobiles for the Earth
20 years breaking the links between technology and violence
Mobiles for the Earth which is part of this campaign, is a proposal targeted at mobile phone users which aims to gather up unused mobiles for humanitarian actions, environmental care and responsible consumer habits.
This initiative promotes the values of the Circular Economy, which is based on eliminating waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use and regenerating natural systems. It therefore promotes the recycling, reuse and reduction of waste, thus extending the useful lives of the products.

Testimonials from our partner companies
“At Florette, this action is framed within our corporate social responsibility policy as a project that aligns with our commitment to the environment and to helping collectives who are disadvantaged or at risk of social exclusion. At Florette, we are delighted and very grateful to be able to partner with entities like Alboan, with whom we can join forces and contribute our grain of sand to the cause.”

“For ALCAD it has been a pleasure to collaborate with a campaign that supports refugees and displaced persons in the Congo and Colombia. What's more, it has helped us to reflect on the “hidden side” of mobile phones, a reality that we are often unaware of.”
Unai Leniz. ALCAD ELECTRONICS S.L
Communication manager
“For us, participating in the “Conflict-Free Technology” campaign meant gaining awareness of how, in our day to day lives, we are oblivious to these situations of conflict which, to a certain extent, we are causing because of our lifestyle. Being aware and doing our part does not resolve these conflicts, but it can help more people to become aware of these situations and encourage us to be more responsible. Taking part in this initiative sparked discussions on the topic in the company and generated awareness. We thank you for your work and contribution to making this world a little better.”
