Plastic waste is one of the most urgent challenges faced by society today. Yet, waste collection levels are low in rapidly developing countries where the pace of growth and consumption has outpaced the development of effective waste management systems. Solving this challenge requires financially viable, sustainable and circular waste management systems, where waste is collected, sorted and recycled.
PROJECT STOP FOUNDATION
WHAT WE DO
Project STOP was co-founded by Borealis and Systemiq in 2017. What has begun as a city partnership project in Muncar, Indonesia over the past five years has expanded across three cities and since 2022, is expanding further across the entire region of Banyuwangi, Indonesia.
PROJECT STOP FOUNDATION
In order to support the growth of Project STOP, the Project STOP Foundation was established in 2022 under the Austrian Federal Foundations and Funds Act 2015 (“BStFG 2015”).
