Working towards a global plastic pollution treaty: Process and possibilities, online (webinar)

17 August, 2021

Presented by: Trisia Farrelly of Massey University

Over 140 countries have now declared support for a global agreement to combat marine litter and microplastics. There are numerous processes underway to build momentum towards an ambitious global plastics agreement at United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) 5.2 in February 2022. This webinar will discuss why a growing number of countries have indicated support for a plastic pollution treaty and what it could look like. Dr. Farrelly is an environmental anthropologist with research expertise in the political ecology of plastic pollution including national, regional, and international plastic pollution policy; product stewardship; waste colonialism; and related social and environmental justice. She is co-founder of the New Zealand Product Stewardship Council and the Aotearoa Plastic Pollution Alliance and has been a member of the United Nations Environment Programme’s (UNEP) Expert Group on Marine Litter and Microplastics since 2017.
