Marine Litter
Marine litter and plastic pollution in the ocean is affecting ecosystems, economies and societies around the world.
Sustainable Seas Trust (SST) and GRID-Arendal are proud to announce the launch of a free online e-learning course for citizen scientists, focusing on marine plastic pollution. The course is based on SST's African Marine Litter Monitoring Manual 2022 Edition, developed with experts across the Western Indian Ocean (WIO) region to build capacity regarding monitoring marine plastic pollution in Africa.
The course is available for free here. The course requires an account on the African Waste Academy website.
