In this episode, Merrisa Naidoo (Africa Plastics Manager at GAIA and Break Free From Plastic (BFFP)), hosts a powerful conversation with leading voices from the global movement against plastic pollution.

She is joined by: Dr. Jamala Djinn, Science Policy Advisor at Break Free From Plastic and the Center for Coalfield Justice; Mohamed Kamal, Executive Director of the Greenish Foundation in Egypt and GAIA/BFFP Africa member; Kabir Arora, General Secretary of the International Alliance of Waste Pickers; and Sirine Rached, Senior Policy Advisor at GAIA.

Together, they unpack the critical question: What will it take to break the consensus deadlock at INC-5.2?

Right now, the world is working on a Global Plastics Treaty — a landmark agreement that could help tackle the plastic pollution crisis. But the process is facing major roadblocks.

Tune in as they explore the political dynamics and frontline perspectives shaping the future of global plastics negotiations. Africa for Zero Waste Facebook · Follow Africa for Zero Waste on Instagram
