Other Grantor Information
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine are private, nonprofit institutions that provide independent, objective advice to inform policy with evidence, spark progress and innovation, and confront challenging issues for the benefit of society. They are comprised of three academies: the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the National Academy of Medicine. The organization convenes hundreds of conferences, workshops, and symposia annually, bringing together leading experts from academia, public, and private sectors. Their work focuses on providing high-quality, evidence-based consensus on complex scientific, engineering, and health-related challenges. They produce peer-reviewed reports, publish scientific journals, and serve as a trusted source of expert advice for policymaking. The National Academies mobilize approximately 6,000 top experts each year who volunteer their time and knowledge to conduct policy studies, workshops, and other activities aimed at addressing critical issues facing the nation and world.
Additional Information
The workshop will holistically consider circular strategies and solutions for sustainable lifecycle management of plastic materials, with a focus on the reduction of plastic waste through redesign, reuse, remaking, and recycling. Context and conditionality of circularity, plastic design for circularity, tools, data needs, and policy for circularity and plastics will be topics of discussion. A Proceedings of a Workshop will be prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines. Additional URLs: undefined
