Funding
In recent years, the issue of marine pollution due to plastic litter has gained significant attention, leading the European Union to allocate fund for a project within the Horizon 2020 framework known as \u201CCleaning Litter by developing and Applying Innovative Methods in European seas\u201D (CLAIM; Grant Agreement number: 774586, under Topic BG-07-2017, which focuses on \u201CBlue green innovation for clean coasts and seas\u201D). Over the duration of 54 months from November 2017 to April 2022, CLAIM brought together a consortium of 21 partners from 13 European Union countries, together with Tunisia and Lebanon. The Hellenic Centre for Marine Research (Institute of Oceanography) served as the coordinating entity. This work has been supported by the project \u201CCleaning Litter by developing and Applying Innovative Methods in European seas (CLAIM)\u201D [H2020-BG-2016\u20132017, Grant number 774586].
