The EU SWITCH-Asia Policy Support Component and the European Environment Bureau held a webinar on the 28 May 2025 about the new EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation. This was part of a series of webinars, which seeks to explore the implications of EU policies related to Sustainable Consumption and Production for its partner countries, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region. It aims to understand the goals of these policies, their relevance in specific contexts, and their implications for stakeholders in the Asia-Pacific, particularly concerning legislation that has emerged from EU policies. This Knowledge brief aims to capture the ideas shared during the webinar but is not a comprehensive analysis of the policy. It will describe the context of the webinar topic and the key ideas discussed. The webinar focused on clarity and diversity of views, rather than comprehensiveness.
