UNEP is launching the first Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on marine litter to raise awareness against marine litter and promote solutions to plastic pollution in our oceans.

This MOOC is offered in collaboration with the Open Universiteit in the Netherlands and incorporates case studies that will inspire leadership at all levels.

Students can choose to enrol in the two-week leadership track starting on 26 October, Monday, and choose to continue on to an eight-week expert track.

Certificates will be awarded upon completion of each of the two tracks.

The course will be useful for university students, as well as faculty members who can use these online educational resources to enhance teaching on marine litter.
