We went through basic guidelines to be followed and how to approach it. While this was a very basic meeting, it proved to be vital as it helped me build onto my previous knowledge about the EE as well as clarifications I had. ]]> 2023-05-31 08:44:09 UTC https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2610299347 angadc https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2610305228 2023-05-31 08:49:30 UTC https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2610305228 angadc https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2636466448 In this EE Session which was just a one on one with Ms Gandhari, I discussed the different ideas that I had brainstormed. I used the minor and preliminary research I had done beforehand to lay out the ideas. Out of all, I will be doing further research on four topics - Cobalt in DRC, Conservation in East Africa, Effect of G20 Climate Regulations and Rural Toilets in India with close context of Solid Waste Management. ]]> 2023-07-02 06:06:08 UTC https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2636466448 angadc https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2636466670 I have chosen the topic of the social, economic and environmental effects of Cobalt Mining in DRC. 
While researching all of the previously mentioned topics, I found a keen interest on this; further fueled as I have started reading a very interesting book about the issue. I have a strong passion for this topic which I hope to translate into my EE. 
To further discuss this with my mentor, I will be meeting her on the 26th of June. ]]> 2023-07-02 06:08:21 UTC https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2636466670 angadc https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2636466998 During this meeting with Ms Gandhari, we discussed the angle where I would like to approach this topic from, what all I would like to discuss. Further, we also discussed how to formulate a Research Question. 
The EE will look at the Negative Social and Environmental Externalities that Cobalt Mining in DRC is creating. ]]> 2023-07-02 06:11:17 UTC https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2636466998 angadc https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2636470326 2023-07-02 06:33:35 UTC https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2636470326 angadc https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2643637053 In this meeting, I was working with Ms Gandhari, with support from Mr David, on my EE Research Question finalization and content discussion. ]]> 2023-07-12 14:58:37 UTC https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2643637053 angadc https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2643638299 To what extent has the increase in global demand for cobalt since 2020 lead to economic and environmental externalities in the Democratic Republic of Congo?]]> 2023-07-12 15:00:44 UTC https://padlet.com/angadc/9wj64adhxhpxntir/wish/2643638299
