What is National Recycling Week?

Back since recycling bins were just a small black tub, Planet Ark has been helping Australians recycle right. National Recycling Week (NRW) is one of Planet Ark’s flagship campaigns and every year aims to educate and empower people to do the right thing when they’re at the bin.
Since the campaign was established in 1996, we have held it every year during the second week of November. This year, NRW will be from 11 - 17 November, 2024.
Our education also focuses on the waste hierarchy – reduce, reuse, recycle - to minimise strain on finite resources.
We connect with individuals, community groups, schools, businesses and government to provide them with the all the tools they need to help educate their network and run their own National Recycling Week events.
Whether you work at a council or school, are part of a community group, or would like to get your household or workplace involved, there are many ways to get involved.
