vor 3 Wochen
The World Economic Forum, committed to improving the state of the world, is the international organization for public-private cooperation. The Forum engages the foremost political, business and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas.
The Global Plastic Action Partnership (GPAP) is a multistakeholder platform hosted by the Forum that aims to eradicate plastic pollution. It works through both a global and national platform, bringing together public, private, and civil society leaders to develop joint solutions to the plastic pollution crisis, which are both pragmatic and ambitious.
Why we are recruiting
The World Economic Forum is host to the Global Plastic Action Partnership (GPAP), which is a public-private collaboration platform to help translate political and corporate commitment to address plastic pollution into concrete action plans. GPAP has been established in collaboration with the governments of Canada and United Kingdom, the World Bank, the World Economic Forum, the World Resources Institute, as well as businesses along the plastics value chain. GPAP harnesses the convening power of the World Economic Forum to bring together governments, businesses and civil society to collaboratively identify and scale solutions to the issue of plastics waste pollution.
GPAP is building a global community of stakeholders from public sector, private sector and civil society. Our communities operate at a global, regional, national and state level to support coordination of plastic action activities and drive impact on the ground. Our national and sub-national multistakeholder platforms delivers strategic, science-based analysis that supports enhanced decision-making. They also provide the opportunity for strategic stakeholders to coordinate action and amplify impact.

We are now seeking assistance to help us scale our growing national partnerships. This role will include programme management, impact measurement and operations support.
