Plastic Oceans Australasia (POA) invites the Australian and New Zealand boating community to showcase an initiative they have implemented or are working to implement to reduce or eliminate single-use plastics.
POA are looking for a completed film that displays a journey over time, as well as their efforts planning, designing and executing their project.
POA sees the advocacy and support of major organisations in the boating industry as critical to influence the reduction of plastic pollution in our oceans and waterways.
In 2022 OiM for the first time, invites boating communities across Australia and New Zealand are invited to create a short film about their plastic-free journey and showcase their efforts to reduce single-use plastics.
An Ocean Decade Activity by UNESCO, OiM coincides with the United Nations Environment Programme Assembly’s proposal to work on a broad and legally binding treaty, aiming to restrict the growth of plastic pollution.
