Cascading Materials Vision — Extending the life of our natural resources

About this program

The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is leading the Cascading Materials Vision, a collaborative initiative aimed at establishing a global system for the efficient, cascading reuse of materials to reduce resource extraction and minimize waste. This project focuses on addressing systemic barriers in the acquisition and use of secondary materials, such as inadequate quality controls and supportive policies. Eligibility criteria are not specified, but the initiative seeks engagement from diverse stakeholders, including leading brands, policymakers, and environmental non-profits, to drive sustainable materials management solutions. Applicants should demonstrate a commitment to promoting socially, environmentally, and economically sustainable practices.
