This #WorldOceansDay we're pleased to showcase fieldwork stories from the four young researchers who won the ASEANO Young Researcher Grant:

Trang Nguyen examined the causes and impacts of marine #plastic litter on #seagrass communities in Phu Quoc Marine Protected Area, Vietnam.

#PhuQuoc is one of the most #biodiverse and important marine protected areas in Vietnam. Yet, plastic litter is widespread - discharging from rivers, streams and canal systems, as well as littering by tourism sector and marine aquaculture.

Trang found that to safeguard these unique habitats, there is an urgent need to improve waste management; consider waste to energy technologies; collaborate with the informal waste sector; invest in surface water waste collection systems and encourage source separation.

ASEANO Research Grant winners Ibnu Faizal and Noir Purba led a team of researchers examining the threats posed by marine debris to #mangrove #ecosystems in Muara Gembong, #Indonesia

Today is #WorldOceanDay - I invite you to visit ASEANO and UNDP in Viet Nam for some examples of how Norway and ASEAN countries work together to #BeatPlasticPollution #NorwayinASEAN

The final #ASEANOResearchGrant awardee, Princess Lydia S. Fuentes, examined the impacts of marine plastic litter on fisheries in the coastal communities of Roxas City, #Philippines

🗞️Today ASEANO was featured in Norwegian Daily Dagsavisen in conjunction with the forthcoming EU ban on select single-use plastics. We highlight the value of sharing expertise and experiences between ASEAN and #Norway to #BeatPlasticPollution
