• Sector Association

The Global Plastic Action Partnership (GPAP) aims to shape a more sustainable and inclusive world through the eradication of plastic pollution. Co-founded by partners across the public and private sectors, GPAP harnesses the convening power of the World Economic Forum to bring together governments, businesses and civil society to translate commitments into meaningful action – at both the global and national levels. They connect game-changing, locally driven innovations to combat plastic waste and pollution with the right resources to move solutions from incubation to rollout.
