Abstract
Bangladesh observes the production of approximately 400,000 metric tonnes of e-waste every year. It is expected that it will witness a 20% increase annually. In order to implement e-waste recycling, it is essential to uncover the influencing factors. In this study, electronic shop owners act as one of the major players responsible for the aggregation of e-waste in the country. Based on Value-Belief-Norm Theory, Self Determination Theory and synthesizing relevant literature in the body of knowledge, this paper presents an integrated conceptual model consisting Altruistic values, Egoistic values, Biosphric values, Environmental belief, Personal norm, Intrinsic motivation and Extrinsic motivation, which are predicted to influence e-waste separation intention in Bangladesh. From a practical point of view, this research sheds light on key determinants that affect separation intention, in which practitioners need to consider when developing strategies concerning e-waste management and policies in Bangladesh.
