The workshop has a key component of breakout sessions to discuss advancements and research needs. Participants are asked to express their preference on the topics identified for the breakout sessions, and propose new or alternative ones in the registration form.
The reports from the breakout sessions will convene in a final panel discussion and closing plenary.
Oral and poster presentations are based on abstracts' submission.
The updated daily program is available here below for download.

Data availability, access, and databases' harmonization; intercomparison of processes and techniques, and data uncertainties;
Technology requirements for effective space-based measurements to identify, characterize, quantify and track marine litter and potential extensions to other floating matter;
New proxies and processes as remote sensing target to help monitoring marine litter, e.g. windrows;
Remote sensing of plastic in inland waterbodies and coasts including harmonisation of low altitude monitoring;
Capacity building and AI exploitation.
