Contact person for holistic plastic waste reduction strategy

We are two students from Gothenburg trying to identify a holistic approach on how to reduce plastic waste, combining circularity, prevention, replacement, reuse, etc. in order to reach the European targets and Sustainability Development Goals. We would like to get in contact with someone who can tell us about how Amsterdam is approaching this problem.

Yes, that was already helpful! We are still looking for someone more in charge of system perspectives for plastic waste prevention but the input so far was quite good as well!
