SPACES: Sustainable Plastic Attitudes to benefit Communities and their Environments
The SPACES project is a £3.4 million pound, NERC UKRI funded project that aims to understand the public health risks and environmental impacts of plastic pollution in developing countries; and to explore interventions, policies, and regulations to mitigate these risks. It is an international collaboration between multiple partner organisations across the UK, Malawi, and Tanzania.
