“Plastic Busters for a Mediterranean free from litter” is a UfM labeled project whose goal is to effectively tackle the issue of marine litter in the Mediterranean and thus contribute to the de-pollution of the Mediterranean Sea. In January 2018, under the title “Plastic Busters: preserving biodiversity from plastics in Mediterranean Marine Protected Areas”, the project was awarded a five million funding by the Interreg MED Programme under Priority Axis 3: Protecting and promoting Mediterranean natural and cultural resources. Over the next four years, the project’s activities will be implemented in Italy, France, Spain, Greece, Croatia, and Albania and, through its Transferring and Capitalization work packages, will be extended to non-EU Mediterranean countries.
