• Partnership roles may require alignment with Basel Convention frameworks and WCO/UNODC operational protocols

Project Scope

• Geographic focus is developing countries (Ghana, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh) — activities in Baltic/North Sea are out of scope
• Scope covers capacity building, training, and technical assistance on plastic waste management and transboundary movement controls

Constraints

• No open grant window or funding amount disclosed — no public call for proposals found
• Activities in Bangladesh are currently on hold — proposals involving Bangladesh may face delays
