  • SO2: promote the improvement of waste management facilities and the involvement of professionals, users, port managers and administrations in the integration of marine waste into waste management systems;
  • SO3: sensitize and sensitize professionals, users and the general public through communication actions, campaigns, dissemination of good practices and success stories.
