Marine Litter: Solutions for a Cleaner Ocean September 28-29, 2022, Brest, France

The 2022 workshop is a follow-up of the first two Brest Workshops on “Technologies for Observing and Monitoring Plastics in the Oceans” in 2018 and “Marine Debris Indicators: What’s Next?” in 2019.

This third workshop is a participatory workshop aiming at the broadening of our community and the identification of priority actions that we want to implement after the workshop. The objective of the workshop is to assess options for the prevention of marine litter entering the ocean and the reduction of marine litter — in particular plastics — in the ocean. Bringing together a wide range of stakeholders, we will identify priorities for a cleaner ocean and develop action plans for these priorities. These priority actions will be integrated into the refined road map developed during the first two workshops. A workshop statement will make recommendations to major institutions and funding agencies based on the priority identified and action plans developed by the workshop participants.
