ISWA YPG’s mission is to make global connections among young people with the aim of sharing knowledge, and ideas for improving waste and resource management practices. YPG has 6 active working groups including Online Discussion Meetings, Marketing & Communications, Mentorship & Career Development, Education, Research & Innovation, and Local & Regional Networks. In this session, they will report on the novel publication of a review study of plastic waste circular actions in seven developing countries to achieve sustainable development goals, the key learnings of their online training course on waste generation and characterization study, the Flagship program to accelerate circular business concepts (2022) and the best practices of creating zero waste communities (ongoing).
