Pioneering Registration of Plastic Reclaimers in South Africa to Beat Plastic Pollution

In South Africa, over 40,000 tons of plastic waste, is dumped into the environment each year, and much of it ends up in the ocean. On the frontlines in the fight against this waste are reclaimers who collect and sort waste, and sell recyclables. With support from PROBLUE, its multi-donor trust fund, the World Bank has pioneered waste reclaimer registration in South Africa, with the African Reclaimers Organization. Over 11,000 reclaimers have been registered since 2022, which has helped municipalities to save almost $54 million, created jobs and cleaned up South Africa.
