Global efforts to combat plastic waste include the Paris Agreement and initiatives like the G7 Ocean Plastics Charter. Challenges such as import bans prompt countries like Japan to focus on plastic recycling strategies. Despite complexities, there's an emphasis on recognizing plastic's positive aspects and developing recycling technologies. A multifaceted approach is essential to address sustainability issues effectively, balancing economic, technical, and environmental considerations.
The kNOwWaste Knowledge Platform was developed through a Project Cooperation Agreement funding by UNEP on 2016. The platform provides data and information on holistic waste management to stakeholders in Asia and the Pacific region. The platform was developed with the following aims: generate and consolidate data or information on holistic waste management, transform data into easily comprehensible outputs for use by key stakeholders, map out and disseminate information on international waste management projects under the GPWM and UNEP projects as well as other international partners, and provide capacity building support through dissemination of data or information support for relevant stakeholders on holistic waste and waste management system.
