SEA of Solutions Week

The first annual SEA of Solutions week is convened by the United Nations Environment Programme (UN Environment) and the Coordinating Body on the Seas of East Asia (COBSEA), organized in partnership with the private sector, research entities, local and national government, and the UN, with support from the Swedish Government.

From 2019, the annual SEA of Solutions week will travel around South East Asia with the ambition to become the go-to exchange platform that unites solution seekers and providers in this increasingly crowded space. The annual multi‑stakeholder events will address current issues in the region, follow up on outcomes from previous years, track progress to closing the loop on plastic, showcase innovative solutions to transform the way we produce and consume plastic, share evidence for informed policymaking, build partnerships, and match investors and innovators.

The event will be structured along thematic days that showcase solutions and engage key stakeholders along the plastic value chain, with a focus on stages of (i) Production, (ii) Use, and (iii) Collection / sorting / recycling.
