Founded in 2019, the Program on Plastics, Ecosystems, and Public Health (PEPH) at the Institute for Sustainability and Energy at Northwestern (ISEN) delivers scalable solutions addressing challenges related to the global use and accumulation of plastics. Focal areas include Materials and Product Innovation, Air, Land, and Water Ecosystem Dynamics, and Public Health Impacts.
This interdisciplinary, multi-institution initiative brings together dozens of experts from across Northwestern as well as collaborators from academic, civic, NGO, and industrial partner institutions. It will host an inaugural Plastics Solutions forum in May of 2020 that brings together this stakeholder audience to discuss challenges and opportunities across science, business, and public policy throughout the plastics value chain.
