Plastic bags may seem small, but their impact on our oceans, landfills, and communities is enormous. Caribbean nations including Jamaica, Barbados, and Antigua & Barbuda have implemented bans to curb single-use plastics—but are these policies truly working? Join the Caribbean Policy Research Institute (capri.caribbean) for the launch of The Bag Ban Theory: Unpacking Evidence and Capacity Gaps in Caribbean Plastics Policy, funded by the European Union (EUinJamaica), as we explore what’s working, what isn’t, and the steps needed to turn policy into real impact. 📅 TODAY, October 16, 2025 | Doors open at 5:30 PM 📍 AC Hotel, Kingston | Live stream available on CAPRI's YouTube 🔗 Register: thebagbantheory.eventbrite.com #TheBagBanTheory #CAPRICaribbean #SemanaDeLaEvidencia #Sustainability #Environment #PlasticsPolicy #PlasticPollution
