The Asia Foundation, with support from the Coca-Cola Foundation, concluded a one-year initiative in Cambodia (2023-2024) to promote the recycling of PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) plastics commonly used in the packaging of water and carbonated beverages. In collaboration with, the Environmental Education and Recycling Organization (COMPOSTED), the project aimed to enhance public awareness and community recycling practices, strengthen the capacity of PET bottle collectors and recyclers, and contribute to PET bottle recovery. The project marks a significant step in laying the groundwork for environmental sustainability in Cambodia. Implemented in two populated cities, Phnom Penh and Battambang, the project engaged a wide range of communities, including waste pickers, junkshop owners, recyclers, schoolteachers and students, and government officials. By working with these groups, the project fostered a collective sense of responsibility and action towards increasing recycling efforts. The project directly engaged with 14,516 people, including 3,133 women and 7,437 children through 43 trainings, events, and visits. Additionally, with the efforts COMPOSTED a total of 79.4 tons of PET bottles were collected in Phnom Penh and Battambang.
