Focusing on reducing single-use plastics, diverting waste from landfills, and protecting fragile marine ecosystems, it strengthens stakeholder engagement, raises awareness, and equips tourism enterprises with the tools and knowledge for long-term sustainable practices. Inspired by a proven initiative in the South Baltic Region, the project establishes a regional framework, develops self-assessment tools, and pilots innovative waste reduction programs. Through the transformation of tourism businesses, training of individuals, and engagement of stakeholders, it aims to prevent marine-bound waste, protect coastal ecosystems, and create a replicable model for all CHTA\/CAST Caribbean jurisdictions.<\/p>\n<h3>Objectifs cl\u00e9s<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Reduce marine pollution and promote a circular economy in the Caribbean tourism sector<\/li>\n<li>Increase awareness and knowledge of circular economy practices among stakeholders<\/li>\n<li>Strengthen stakeholder engagement and regional collaboration<\/li>\n<li>Equip tourism enterprises with tools, training, and infrastructure for sustainable, circular operations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Focus sur l&#039;\u00e9cosyst\u00e8me<\/h3>\n<p>This project focuses on marine litter management in coastal ecosystems including coral reefs, seagrass meadows, and mangroves.<\/p>\n<h3>Communaut\u00e9s impliqu\u00e9es<\/h3>\n<p>This project is implemented in the following communities:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Grande Anse, Pt.
