PROs around the Globe | Making the Job of the PRO Easier: Alliances, Coalitions and an Open-source EPR Registration Tool
The Global Action Partnership for Extended Producer Responsibility, in cooperation with the GreenTechKnowledgeHub of the Export Initiative for Environmental Protection, invites you to join the seventh session of our online webinar series “PROs around the Globe”!
Making the Job of the PRO Easier: Alliances, Coalitions and an Open-source EPR Registration Tool
December 11, 1PM CET
In the final session of our webinar series “PROs around the globe” Emmanuelle Bautista (Citeo) will present the Producer Responsibility Coalition. Our second speaker, Joachim Quoden, will speak for the EXTENDED PRODUCER RESPONSIBILITY ALLIANCE (EXPRA) and Dorothee Bürkle will introduce an open-source EPR registration tool.
The Producer Responsibility Coalition is an alliance of fifty Producer Responsibility Organisations from all continents, created in the context of the negotiations for an international Treaty on plastic pollution. The aim of the coalition is to advocate common positions on EPR. It also offers technical recommendations for its inclusion into the future binding text of the Treaty, as well as for its understanding by international organisations. The Coalition will be presented by Emmanuelle Bautista, Director for European and international affairs at Citeo, the French PRO for packaging and graphic paper.
EXPRA (EXTENDED PRODUCER RESPONSIBILITY ALLIANCE) is home of 34 packaging and packaging waste recovery and recycling organisations from 31 countries. The alliance and its members work alongside all relevant stakeholders to provide practical solutions for ensuring packaging circularity.
For an EPR project in Jordan, GIZ developed a digital EPR registration tool that covers the processing of the registration of companies, declarations on the quantities placed on the market and fee invoices. The open-source tool can be adopted and further developed by other PROs free of charge.
