The intense generation of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), accelerated in recent years, has become a challenge for sustainability, since it produces numerous environmental, social and economic impacts. However, through proper management, with treatment and final disposal, risks to human health and the environment are minimized. In this sense, the use of indicators has been of great use in the evaluation and monitoring of the goals to be achieved in the management of WEEE in the municipalities, constituting an important tool in the analysis of the sustainability of WEEE management programs. The objective of this research is the development of sustainability indicators for the evaluation of the WEEE management system in Brazilian municipalities. For this, a set of 31 indicators created, adapted or selected from the literature to be celebrated through the Delphi Method was gathered. It took two rounds of the method to refine the indicators and research relevant to the study by specialists in Brazil. In addition, the availability of data to feed the indicators was analyzed according to the experts' opinion. As a result, a matrix was found composed of 22 indicators (with calculation method, descriptors of the sustainability trend and their respective notes) separated into five dimensions of sustainability, six indicators of the Political / Institutional dimension, six of the Knowledge / Coverage dimension, three from the Economic dimension, two from the Social dimension and five from the Environmental dimension, and the proposal for the calculation of the matrix's sustainability index was also presented. In 9.1% of the indicators there was a majority response of availability, 50% average and 40.9% low availability of data supplied to the indicators. Based on the application of the Matrix generated in municipalities, it is expected to obtain a diagnosis of the sustainability of the management of WEEE, which can be used as an instrument of environmental sanitation policy, by the Public Power and, not a subsidy for the implementation of measures that promote the progress in the management of this waste.
