Microplastic monitoring stations

A University Research Centre · South Africa · Africa · Presented on 4 September 2026

About the project

Continuous sampling at three coastal points with open data publication.

Climate mitigation and adaptation benefits

Provides the baseline against which coastal wetland restoration in the province can be judged, so climate finance is not spent without a measurement.

Ecosystem restoration potential

Identifies which stretches of shore carry the microplastic load that reaches shellfish beds, so protection can be aimed where it changes something.

The platform does not broker finance and does not match projects to funders automatically. Published projects are visible to everyone; the secretariat forwards messages about them to the organisation.
