Plastik Waste Shipment 2024
This report summarizes a five-year IMPEL project focused on assisting inspectors in enforcing plastic waste shipment regulations in light of China's 2018 import ban and the 2019 Basel Convention amendments. The project developed guidance for inspectors, conducted surveys and webinars, and identified ongoing challenges in implementing the regulations, such as loopholes exploited by shippers and difficulties in interpreting key terms.
