ASEAN-Japan Cooperation on Marine Plastic Waste

Summary

On March 16, 2021, the ASEAN-Japan Centre (AJC) launched the “Future Leaders’ Declaration on ASEAN-Japan Cooperation for International Marine Plastic Waste” to adopt and present a student-initiated declaration on international marine plastic litter between Japan and the 10 ASEAN member countries. Based on this Declaration, the “ASEAN-Japan Eco School for Marine Plastic Waste Education (“Eco-School Project”)” was created and launched in September 2021 as a pilot project to implement the recommendations in Clause 18 (Education and awareness) and Clause 24 (Youth Engagement) of the Declaration [please see Declaration].

The Eco-School Project supports the ASEAN Regional Action Plan for Combating Marine Debris in the ASEAN Member States (2021-2025) Component III: Public Awareness, Education and Outreach, and aims to further strengthen the partnership between Japan and ASEAN through multi-generational and cross-sectoral collaborations between the youth, educational/academic sector, and governments of ASEAN Member States and Japan.
