Clean Mediterranean Sea!

Short description of the action

“Clean Mediterranean Sea! – CMS!“ is an “academic start-up“ project at the Vienna Forum for Democracy and Human Rights. In light of the increasing plastic pollution of the Mediterranean Sea – whose maritime ecosystem is already heavily impacted by the effects of the climate crisis – CMS! takes action by researching the current legal and general measures and initiatives taken by the EU, OSCE and UN as well as the riparian states of the Mediterranean that are designed to counteract this development.
CMS! conducts interdisciplinary analyses on the topic in order to develop legal policy proposals, recommendations and initiatives based on the research findings. These are to be forwarded to the EU, the OSCE, the UN and the riparian states of the Mediterranean.
