MAELSTROM Objective 4: Clustering of blue technologies for joint plastic strategy-oriented efforts
The objective is to support of the SDG 14 Life Below Water and the European Strategy for Plastics within a Circular Economy vision by coordinating with and integrating the efforts of projects under the same topic, as well as projects selected under other topics in H2020 for the reduction, removal and sustainable management of ML in the coastal areas. It is based upon intensive coordination and networking with best cases of blue technology for removal of ML for activities integration and joint demonstrations (BG-Blue Growth, the MSCA-Marie Sklodowska Curie Action; ERC-European Research Council; SME Instrument; CIRC – Circular Economy; LEIT-Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies; BBI JU-Bio-based Industries Joint Undertaking) for impact maximisation. This is in support of the Marine Scientific Research and Transfer of Marine Technology at EU level and in the framework of UNCLOS, actively contributing to the BlueMed Pilot action on a Healthy Plastic-free Mediterranean Sea.
