Project Stop aims to establish a circular waste management system across the whole regency (district) of Banyuwangi, Indonesia. Co-founded by the Austrian plastics manufacturer Borealis and the UK sustainability service Systemic, Project Stop has now been joined by scale-up partner NGO Clean Rivers. “Clean Rivers is a UAE-based organization dedicated to transforming rivers into catalysts for sustainable development for people and the planet. We recognized Project Stop’s efforts to design, implement, and scale circular economy solutions, as well as to unlock socio-economic opportunities within local communities in Indonesia through a collaborative approach,” a Clean Rivers spokesperson tells Packaging Insights.
