Neela Sapana - rePurpose Global

rePurpose Global Impact Framework in action

The BASE Framework is our leading impact creation process that is the strong foundation for each rePurpose Global plastic recovery impact project. This framework ensures that our interventions in each geography create additional, impactful and verifiable outcomes.

1. Baseline

Plastic from the city leaks into the ocean

Over 150 tonnes of ‘low value’ plastic - with no recycling value - are generated in Chennai every day
World's second longest urban beach, The Marina Beach is covered with trash almost daily due to littering and waste from the city's waterways

2. Additionality

Increased Collections and New Infrastructure

Incentivize collection of low-value plastic waste
Long term capacity building with New Material Recovery Facility (MRF)
Support transportation to the best end-of-life destination for materials

3. Solution

Solution for Neela Sapna

Public-private partnership involving the City Municipal Council, staff and on ground impact partner
Increased collection rates
New MRF with state of the art equipment to scale capacity

4. Evaluation

Thorough Audit and Assurance Process

Each Project's plastic recovery is tracked and traced via reTrace technology.
Furthermore, in line with the comprehensive rePurpose Audit & Assurance Protocol (rAAP), each project is audited for environmental compliance and social safeguards through multiple levels of internal audits - from documentation checks to onsite visits.
In addition projects are also audited through third parties to provide an independent assurance.
