The Minimum Requirements for Plastic Waste Recovery & Crediting Standards were developed by the PREVENT Waste Alliance Core Group on Plastic Credits. This publication is a joint effort by plastic waste recovery organisations, all of them operating in developing countries and all of them members of the PREVENT Waste Alliance. These practitioners have gathered with the aim of improving the level of plastic waste recovery services in developing countries, so that ultimately more funds can flow to these services and higher environmental and social impacts can be achieved.
