**About Zero Waste SG**

Zero Waste SG (ZWSG) is an Institution of Public Character and Non-Governmental Organisation leading the drive towards zero waste in Singapore through education and advocacy. We focus on engaging consumers and corporates on the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle) in areas of food waste, plastic disposables, household recycling and organisational waste.

We expose people to waste issues and inspire them to make everyday choices towards zero waste. We also aid Singapore and corporations in accelerating the shift towards zero waste and the shift to the circular economy. Our projects see us partnering with governmental agencies, the media, corporates and other NGOs on nation-wide campaigns such as the 'Bring Your Own' campaign, which aims to educate and encourage Singaporeans on the reuse culture, and to decrease the use of single-use disposables in Singapore. ZWSG’s latest campaign ‘Sort it Out’ advocates for waste segregation at source to increase our recycling rates. ZWSG also gives talks, workshops and consultancies at corporate venues and schools.
