						MARINE DEBRIS IMPACT
Volunteers, organisations and community groups from around the country join forces to find practical solutions to reducing ocean plastics.
Â
We coordinate the Australian Marine Debris Initiative (AMDI), an on-ground network of volunteers, communities, organisations and agencies around the country. The AMDI Network monitors marine debris and its impacts in their local areas, contributing to the AMDI Database, which provides vital evidence to combat the ocean plastic crisis on regional, national and international scales.
