The Plastic Tide Turners Challenge (PTTC) is a United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) led-initiative that educates young people around the world about plastic pollution, giving them the tools to change their personal behaviour, inspire their communities, and create a better future for people and planet. It was created as part of the wider Youth & United Nations Global Alliance (YUNGA) UN Challenge Badge Series of which we are key part.

Through the Challenge, young people can develop their leadership skills and make an impact on issues that matter, from cutting back on the use of single-use plastic to recycling more effectively. This initiative also puts young people at the centre of tackling plastic pollution, encouraging them to realise that they can make a huge difference in the world.
