MicroDanger (BSB01214) — Protecting the Black Sea Ecosystem by raising public and sectoral awareness and reducing microplastic pollution
Programme Priority: 02 – Clean and Green Region
Specific Objective: RSO2.7: Enhancing protection and preservation of nature, biodiversity and green infrastructure, including in urban areas, and reducing all forms of pollution
The Overall objective of the MicroDanger Project:
is to identify the potential microplastic sources and determine precautions for those by applying standardized methodologies and to contribute to reducing their level of pollution by raising the stakeholders' awareness to enhance protection and preserve the nature of the Black Sea by contributing to reducing microplastic pollution.
The Specific objective of the MicroDanger Project:
is to investigate and identify some sectoral activities as potential microplastic sources, to test some ideas and methods to manage their microplastic input, and to reduce their level of contribution and the overall microplastic pollution level by contributing to raising awareness of the citizens, stakeholders, sectoral workers and representatives, and decision-makers.
The MicroDanger project will combine the scientific, technological, and training capabilities of the partners to produce and offer joint solutions for microplastic pollution in the Black Sea. Via an eplatform, the project will unite common global solutions and know-how and will apply standardized methodology for a common problem, microplastic pollution in the Black Sea. The project will organize "Interaction Day" events to bring a deeper understanding of local and regional issues.
