NP-GAN will catalyse action to address nutrient and wastewater pollution impacts on ocean ecosystems and human health focusing on, but not limited too, agrochemical run-off of fertilizers, and sewage and domestic wastewater.
This program will go beyond the traditional approaches for nutrient mitigation, looking to facilitate innovative solutions integrating new technology, data and society. This will be achieved by building the tools, knowledge, and capacity to evaluate source, fate, and impacts of land-based sources of pollution and by providing best-practice guidance and recommendations for solutions. NP-GAN will harmonise knowledge from existing programs to develop a toolbox of pragmatic, cost-effective methods, guidelines and tools for monitoring, assessment, and mitigation activities. We bring extensive experience across temperate and tropical systems in addressing nutrient and wastewater pollution for the benefit of marine ecosystems, human health and coastal communities.
