The objectives of the training with Malaysian municipalities and city councils are to grow Champions in each State in Malaysia to be able to do three things:

1. Measure and Assess: Understand the baseline of your current plastic use, recovery, recycling and use of
   recycled content, so your municipality/city council is better equipped to make important and
   significant gains on plastic pollution reduction, resource recovery and reuse of materials.
2. Engage Stakeholders: Use the results to gain the knowledge and capacity on how best to
   engage your employees, partners, procurement teams, solid waste and public cleansing
   departments etc.
3. Go Circular: Once a baseline analysis is completed, it becomes possible to manage the knowledge of what resources you have available for “circulation”, to promote a more circular economy  and efficiently re-use and recover materials.
