Abstract :
The need for information about recycling and garbage disposal is increasingly expressed. The research perspective implemented in this study provides the information designer with a set of questions regarding the information context. This study concerns three contexts: inner context, close context and external context. It was found that informants consider the close and the external context as the most important for promoting desired recycling behaviour.
