Expert Advisory Call Down Service - Accra Plastics Management Pilot

Description

The supplier will be responsible for managing this pilot, working with the Government of Ghana, a private sector alliance (the Ghana Recycling Initiative by Private Enterprises, GRIPE) and other key actors, to address shortcomings in waste collection and management systems and mobilise investment in recycling and processing facilities. The pilot will also contribute to the aims of the Global Plastic Action Partnership, an ambitious public-private partnership which the UK has established in partnership with the World Economic Forum, and which aims to engage governments, regional bodies, international organisations, and business, as well as innovators and civil society organisations, to catalyse action at scale to tackle global plastic pollution. The pilot will build a public-private partnership aimed at tackling plastic pollution in Ghana. Action will focus on improving waste management and increasing recycling capacity in Accra by catalysing private sector investment in infrastructure and developing an evidence base for policy makers. As the partnership progresses, it will enable learning and the gathering of evidence on what works when building public private partnerships in the plastics sector, with a view to replicating the action elsewhere.
