Project No. CD_203_2024A Project Title Workshop on the latest plastic recycling technologies and their policy applications Project Status Project in Implementation Plastic waste poses serious environmental problems due to its persistence and wide- reaching impacts. This project aims to provide policymakers with insights into the latest plastic recycling technologies to address plastic waste and develop forward- looking policies. It includes a workshop at the 2025 APEC CD Forum to strengthen policy capacity in line with APECs sustainable growth goals. Unlike other APEC projects, the planned project will focus on technical topics aimed at reducing plastic waste generation rather than just managing it, including the latest recycling technologies, best practices and effective plans. By enhancing the capacities of policymakers and industry stakeholders, the project will contribute significantly to structural reforms for sustainable green growth. The collaboration and knowledge sharing facilitated by this event are expected to lead to innovative solutions and stronger policy frameworks to combat plastic waste effectively. |
