At the Global Plastics Summit, participants will collaborate with senior leaders in the plastics sector to support and influence INC decision-making. A dynamic mix of engaging plenary sessions and collaborative working groups will address the issues at the heart of the treaty, and devise creative solutions for an ambitious treaty that addresses the entire life-cycle of plastics.

The first Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (INC1) in 2022 for a UN global treaty to end plastic pollution was constructive but revealed ongoing opportunity gaps in an aspiring whole-of-life cycle plastics agreement. What happens off the negotiating table, as much as on, will determine the success of the treaty.
An independent global forum under the Economist Impact banner, Global Plastics Summit 2023 has been curated to build and sustain momentum for the UN plastics treaty, critically take stock of progress at the half-way stage, and offer a platform for diverse voices to be heard in pursuit of an ambitious treaty. Join the largest gathering of delegates before INC-3 in Bangkok on October 11th and 12th through plenaries and interactive working groups to work collaboratively towards a robust UN plastics treaty.
