3RproMar Regional Knowledge Hub for Marine Litter Prevention in ASEAN

3RproMar (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle to Protect the Marine Environment and Coral Reefs) is an ASEAN-German cooperation project implemented by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and in coordination with the ASEAN Secretariat.

This regional project collaborates with national partners in Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam to tackle land-based waste and marine litter.

In 2023, 3RproMar launched its Regional Knowledge Partnership for Marine Litter Prevention in Bali, Indonesia. This partnership unites ERIA’s Regional Knowledge Centre for Marine Plastic Debris, AIT’s Regional Resource Centre for Asia and the Pacific, and NIVA’s International Knowledge Hub Against Plastic Pollution. The goal is to disseminate scientific insights and best practices to support informed decision-making in the region.

Through this partnership, the Regional Knowledge Centre for Marine Plastic Debris will enhance the dissemination of knowledge on upstream measures regarding plastic waste and marine litter, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), and private sector engagement, among other topics.
