Chile - Circular Plastics

In Chile, CPAP focuses on technical support to the plastics industry and collaboration with local and national authorities, with the main emphasis on technical and legislative assistance for the implementation of the REP Law.

CPAP Chile centers on various technical and legislative advisory activities for the implementation of public policies that advance in a reduction of plastic. In addition, it seeks to highlight European initiatives or innovations and evaluate possible implementations in the plastic value chain in Chile. To this end, it is proposed to generate instances of collaboration between current needs and possible European solutions or alternatives related to this matter.

This project also proposes to generate educational campaigns with national scope, in order to achieve a greater impact on citizen awareness from an early age regarding plastic waste.
