| dc.description | Plastic pollution is one of the most pressing and visible environmental issue and is part of the triple planetary crisis of climate change, nature and biodiversity loss, and pollution. To address this challenge, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) have jointly developed a statistical guideline for measuring flows of plastic throughout the life cycle. This statistical guideline aims to provide policy makers with high quality statistics on plastic that are comparable at the national, regional, and global levels.
In response to an official request from the General Statistics Office of Vietnam, UNEP, in partnership with UNITAR, has organized a pilot testing of the statistical guideline for measuring flows of plastic throughout the life cycle in Vietnam. The aim of the pilot testing is to support the General Statistics Office of Vietnam in calculating plastics indicators, using the statistical guideline for measuring flows of plastic throughout the life cycle. | en_US |
