The Clean Cities and Urban Sustainability Forum 2024 is committed to advancing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, with a focus on Sustainable Development Goals 11 and 12, which emphasize creating sustainable cities and communities. According to a March 2024 WWF & UNEP report, 80% of marine pollution originates from land-based sources, primarily household and factory waste. In 2023, landfills released about 148.9 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent, making them the third largest source of methane pollution in Asia. Additionally, around 22,000 tons of pollution are released annually by open burning in Mumbai, including plastic waste that takes thousands of years to decompose. These issues contribute to coastal flooding, climate change, and negative impacts on aquatic life.

The forum will explore Malaysia’s commitment to achieving a national recycling rate of 40% by 2025, as outlined in the 12th Malaysia Plan, through technological innovations, community engagement, and policy reforms across the ASEAN region.
