Join us to discuss the bigger picture of engaging young Europeans, combatting plastic pollution, and promoting citizen science in the European Research Area. Discover its impact on the Mission Restore our Oceans and Waters by 2030. At the summit, you will be getting the unique opportunity to learn about and discuss together with young adults, teachers, researchers, policy makers and other stakeholders:
What are the scientific findings of Plastic Pirates – Go Europe! On plastic pollution in European rivers and oceans?
What have we learnt about plastic pollution sources, pathways and hotspots?
What was the experience for young adults in the citizen science initiative across Europe and what can we learn from their feedback?
How has participation affected their knowledge and attitudes?
How does citizen science and engagement contribute to the monitoring and implementation of EU policies for ocean and waters
What has been learned over the course of the project from upscaling and Europeanising a citizen science campaign to 13 European countries?
What kind of lessons can be drawn for local, regional, national and European public engagement, for combatting plastic waste pollution, for supporting citizen science initiatives, and for the European Research Area as a whole?
