Our Work

Our Vision

A healthy planet, by transitioning to a circular economy — eliminating waste and pollution

Our Mission

To be the peak circular economy NGO and community advocate in Australia, driving the behavioural and systemic change required to deliver the social, economic, and environmental benefits of a zero-waste society and to support waste reduction across the Asia-Pacific region.

Our 4 Strategic Pillars

Our strategic pillars guide how we drive change. They focus our advocacy, partnerships, and policy work to deliver practical solutions that accelerate Australia’s transition to a circular economy.

Advocacy

We actively lobby the government for policies and laws that effectively combat waste and plastic pollution.

Engagement

We collaborate with businesses, policymakers, and communities to promote best practices in waste reduction and plastic pollution mitigation.

Leadership

As a peak group, we lead, advise, coordinate, and support our allies in our shared mission.

EVIDENCE

Our work is based on facts and credible research.

Our Strategic Goals

Five goals guide our vision:

Transition to a circular economy:  eliminating waste and pollution.

Regenerate our marine and freshwater ecosystems in Australia and beyond.

Establish ourselves as a leading authority on these critical issues, earning recognition from government, stakeholders, and the wider community.
Strengthen our resources to be a robust environmental advocate, capable of running impactful campaigns and supporting our allies effectively.

Strive towards a world where our mission is complete, making us obsolete.
