MARPLASTICCs aims to: 1. Assist governments and regional bodies in Africa and Asia to strengthen, develop and implement legislation and other measures which reduce plastic pollution. 2. Equip governments, industry and civil society with tools, knowledge, capacity and policy options to help close the plastic tap. 3. Ensure that the full life cycle of plastics is taken into consideration, not just the impacts of downstream “marine litter”.
