Sustainable Solutions for Ending Plastic Waste through Technology and Innovation
Technology, Innovation, and Design Working Group led by Sanjeev Raghubir focuses on collaborative efforts to end plastic waste in South Africa by developing scalable solutions across the plastic packaging value chain. The group aims to achieve zero plastic waste in the environment through increased recycling content, innovative end-market developments, and sustainable design practices like on-pack recycling logos. Potential deliverables include creating new end markets, increasing recycled content in products, and implementing supportive policies for a circular economy.
