The presence of anthropogenic debris in the marine ecosystems represents a relevant neg-ative impact on marine water quality and life, also impairing socio-economicalfruition of natural resources. The Italy-Croatia Interreg ML-REPAIR Project (2018-2019) aims to prevent and reduce input and dispersion of marine litter (ML) in the Adriatic Sea, so con-tributing to an environmentally sustainable growth of tourism andthe fishery sector by supporting behavioral changes through raising awareness activities about ML issues. The project, capitalizing the results of the previous IPA-Adriatic DeFishGear Project (DFG), is focused toward a joint governance of ML management in Italy and Croatia. The main project activities are being focused on testing innovative educational tools for raising awareness of tourists and youth population of local communities in coastal areas, and supporting strategies for ML monitoring in a participative approach involving the fishing communities. The DFG activities selected to be capitalized in this project are specifically: a) the Fishing for Litter (FfL), based on the principle of removal and correct disposal of ML recovered during fishing activities ; b) the monitoring of abandoned, lost or discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) and ML on the sea floor ; c) the dissemination of available infor-mation about ML and d) evaluation of plastic debris ageing, degradation and potential generation of microplastics. The experience gained by partners in DFG will be specifi-cally spent to spread further the implementation of good FfL practices in the fishery sec-tor, increasing the number of boats and ports involved in this activity in Italy and Croatia. |
