WWF plastic pollution in Africa: identifying policy gaps and opportunities

There is currently no comprehensive report or reference available on the state and impacts of plastic pollution in Africa specifically, or on the policy and legal frameworks required to address this challenge from an African context and perspective. This report aims to fill this knowledge gap by providing a brief glance at the plastic pollution challenge in Africa, the policy options available to address it and recommendations on the policy frameworks still required to tackle the challenge urgently, holistically and in a coordinated manner. This report is primarily aimed at policymakers and experts working in the plastic policy landscape in Africa.
