Plastic pollution is a universal problem, particularly in the Global South. Communities have become landfill sites where both people and the environment suffer. Plastibank is the stepping stone for generational change.

 

This project aims to tackle more than just plastic pollution. It aims to change our relationship of wealth, waste, our environment and the economy in order to create a sustainable and inclusive future.
