Tackling plastic pollution requires a holistic strategy that covers the entire lifecycle of plastics and involves all stakeholders, from governments and industries to communities and individuals.
The UNEP Plastics Initiative aims to lead and implement a system-wide transformation towards a circular economy of plastics. It promotes innovative solutions and cultivates a positive environment to encourage sustainable and circular practices in industries and communities around the world.
To maximise its impact, the Initiative consolidates all of UNEP's plastic-related projects, activities, actions, and results into a unified programme. This coordinated approach not only enhances the efficiency of individual projects but also amplifies their collective impacts on reducing plastic pollution.
