Institution chef de file :
Instituto Rede Marulho – Brazil
Marulho tackles ghost fishing and marine pollution by collecting, cleaning, and reusing discarded fishing nets, transforming them into new products and sustainable income opportunities for coastal communities.
Combining innovation, ocean literacy, and social inclusion, Marulho bridges environmental conservation and community development. The initiative has already prevented tons of ghost nets from returning to the ocean, standing as a model of community-driven action aligned with the goals of the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development.
