Reducing Marine Plastic Pollution PILF Sri Lanka Project on Regulating Plastic Waste in Sri Lanka Implemented by the Public Interest Law Foundation through support from USAID Clean Cities, Blue Ocean program

The Public Interest Law Foundation’s (PILF) project on Regulating Plastic Waste in Sri Lanka is supported by a grant from USAID’s Clean Cities, Blue Ocean (CCBO) program.
