BAMAR | MARINE LITTER WORKSHOP

The Marine Litter Seminar (BAMAR) arises as a response to the concern for this problem in the scientific field and in broad sectors of society. This is a highly complex issue that requires urgent management from diverse and complementary points of view. The answers obtained and the actions that are eventually applied will be decisive for the good environmental status of our marine ecosystems. It is held for the fourth time, within the framework of ISMS 2026.
