Tropical Islands Partnering on Solutions (TIPS) for Marine Debris is a bimonthly online webinar series hosted by the NOAA Marine Debris Program. The goal of the series is to help island communities connect and share perspectives from across the tropics on common marine debris issues and proposed solutions. Each webinar will feature stakeholders from federal, state/territorial, and local governments, nongovernmental organizations, universities, and industry. Discussions will include topics such as outreach and education, policy, debris management and successes as well as challenges under normal and storm conditions. This TIPS webinar will feature a panel of representatives from various organizations who will share successes and challenges encountered for large-scale removal efforts targeting hurricane-derived debris.
