How can we sustainably reduce marine plastic in Sub-Saharan countries? By empowering local innovators and experts, celebrating their ideas and creating a space for networking and collaboration.

We are delighted to invite you to attend the Afri-Plastics Summit & Awards, a Challenge Works event showcasing innovative solutions for marine plastic pollution in Sub-Saharan Africa. The event will include two days of experts sharing their knowledge and experience, networking opportunities, showcasing and celebrating the nine winners of the Afri-Plastics Challenge. You can join us in person in Kenya or attend our livestream.

Over the past 12 months, 40 innovators from across Sub-Saharan Africa have been developing their solutions to combat plastic waste as part of the Afri-Plastics Challenge, funded by Global Affairs Canada. The Afri-Plastics Summit & Awards will feature the finalists who will showcase their solutions, all building up to the announcement of the winners at a ceremony on the 16th.

We will be joined for in-depth conversations with a range of local and international experts and speakers on the marine plastic ecosystem in the region, with the opportunity to network and exchange ideas.

We look forward to celebrating with you the ongoing work in this field and the inspired and inspiring people contributing towards a more sustainable future.
