How can we accelerate action to prevent marine litter from sea-based sources? This Lighthouse Lofoten Satellite Activity will highlight preventive solutions and involve those who make them happen.

We are thrilled to contribute to the Ocean decade laboratory “A Clean Ocean” with this Lighthouse Lofoten webinar.

The objective of the webinar is to catalyse the action needed to prevent marine litter from sea-based sources. The webinar will create a dialogue around how to solve practical challenges, seek to understand regional variations and take a dive into the root causes of marine litter from ocean activities.

Through examples, dialogue and knowledge sharing, this is our guiding light towards prevention of marine litter from sea-based sources.

We have created a resource board in Miro with some background information about sea-based sources. You are welcome to share your own resources or projects on prevention of sea-based marine litter. Explore the resource board here.

About the organiser of this event

The Norwegian government has set MARINENVIRON a mission on the prevention of marine litter from sea-based sources. MARINENVIRON is a public centre of expertise and, from 2022, will dedicate its work solely to the global environmental problem of marine litter in our oceans.

The Satellite Activity is one of three webinar events leading up to the international Lighthouse Lofoten Conference 2022 next year.

Be a part of Lighthouse Lofoten and help strengthen its beam on the 18th of November.
