We are taking the podcast on the road again to the fourth session of the United Nations International Plastics Negotiations in Ottawa, Canada.
The formal name is “Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee on Plastic Pollution”. This meeting is known as “INC-4”. The first three sessions were held in Uruguay, France, and Kenya. The talks started in 2022 following a resolution passed to create a treaty.
The goal is to develop an internationally legally binding instrument on plastic pollution, including in the marine environment.
Our guests today are part of the ICC delegation at the negotiations this week in Ottawa. Lisa Koperqualuk is the Vice-Chair of ICC, and President of ICC Canada. Liz Pijogge is the Northern Contaminants Researcher for the Nunatsiavut Government. She’s based in Nain. Gerald Lennie Inglangasuk is a member of the Fisheries Joint Management Committee in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region. He’s based in Inuvik.
The guest host for this podcast is Stephen Hendrie.
