Despite challenges in the negotiation process, there is growing alignment and urgency to conclude an effective global plastics treaty to drive harmonised regulations to end plastic pollution.

Despite tireless efforts by the INC Chair and government negotiators to finalise a global treaty addressing the full lifecycle of plastics, it has not been agreed during INC 5.2 in Geneva.

Governments committed to leaving Geneva with a strong treaty must act decisively.

Representatives from our Coalition will attend INC 5.2 in Geneva as registered observers.

We remain steadfast in our belief that a treaty with harmonised regulations is the most effective way to pursue a lasting impact on plastic pollution while delivering economic, environmental and social value.
