Project Snapshot
The Global Plastic Action Partnership (GPAP) is a multi-stakeholder platform established in 2018 by the World Economic Forum to accelerate coordinated, evidence-driven solutions to plastic pollution. Through National Plastic Action Partnerships (NPAPs), GPAP brings together government, private sector actors, civil society, development partners, and informal sector representatives to advance circular economy solutions across partner countries. In Ghana, GPAP is implemented through the National Plastic Action Partnerships (NPAP), which convenes stakeholders across the plastic value chain.
