Abstract
The Gulf and Caribbean Fisheries Institute (GCFI) and UNEPs Regional Coordinating Unit for the Caribbean (CAR/RCU), are co-hosting a Regional Node for the for the Global Partnership on Marine Litter (GPML) in the Wider Caribbean Region (WCR). The purpose of the GPML node is in part to identify opportunities to support marine litter reduction and deterrence activities in the region. Although this project is not one of the projects to be implemented under the Small Scale Funding Agreement between GCFI and UNEP, this concept note has been developed with a view for possible future funding opportunities. It can be seen as a framework for green events.
