NOWPAP has been invited to participate in a writing workshop in Prague for the UNEP Yearbook 2011, to contribute on-site perspective on the topic of plastics pollution as one of the emerging issues to be addressed in the Yearbook. As NOWPAP has been implementing a regional action plan on marine litter in the recent years and plastics account for a majority of marine litter, experiences and information gathered in the NOWPAP region will be useful in the process of compiling the Yearbook.
