Our Ocean 2019 – Project STOP: Partnerships to End Ocean Plastic Leakage in Southeast Asia

“Before Project STOP, especially in the river, it was really dirty. You couldn’t see the water; it was full of waste. In small streams, big streams or in alleys – there was a lot of waste,” says Ramhat Hidayat, head of a sub-village in Muncar, a coastal fishing community in East Java, Indonesia. Launched at Our Ocean in 2017 and co-founded by Borealis and SYSTEMIQ , Project STOP (Stop Ocean Plastics) brings together industry, government and NGOs to design economically sustainable waste management systems
