Citizen science on Marine Litter

Combining Research and Action!

Since 2018 HZ Green Office is organizing clean-up events at the beaches, canals, forests, and harbors in Vlissingen, in collaboration with the Municipality of Vlissingen and “Doe Mee, Verlos de Zee!”. Integrated monitoring is carried out of the marine litter distribution on the coasts of the Eastern and Western Scheldt, as well as in the harbour of Vlisssingen. This research is shared with our partners in the Convenant Schone Schelde; a collaborate effort signed by 30 local parties to keep our river Scheldt clean. In this way, we participate in scientific research and at the same time contribute to efforts to keep our local beaches and River Scheldt clean.

In 2019, we monitored marine litter on five beach locations in Zeeland and tested different monitoring methods. The outcome of this research can be found in this report: Using citizen science in monitoring plastic debris on beaches.

Over the period June - October 2020, we monitored which types and amounts of marine waste we found in the Inner Harbour of Vlissingen. Read our report: Monitoring zwerfafval Binnenhaven Vlissingen.

Read the story that Janine Vink, wrote as a student journalism at Utrecht University, about one of our monitoring events.

Clean-ups and monitoring sessions are taking place every week. We give you the opportunity to earn HZ Personality Credits while connecting with students from other study programs, participating in an outdoor activity, and making a step towards a clean and circular economy. You don’t need to bring anything. Earn double hours only for clean-ups with monitoring, like the harbor clean-ups.

Non-student volunteers are welcome to join our efforts because the initiative is based on volunteers! Contact us or your local municipality.
You can also do your own cleanup. Locations where lots of waste can be found are around the canal between Middelburg and Vlissingen, De Buitenhaven in Vlissingen, around HZ Middelburg in the park, and around supermarkets. Or select a location in your neighborhood!

If you link this to HZ Personality, make some pictures as proof of your activity. But before that, do not forget to talk with your study coach and have the PDP approved. For having the hours signed, contact Carmel Michaeli at mich0023@hz.nl

-Since 2018 the Green Office is facilitating clean up events at the Beaches in Vlissingen and at the Binnenhaven, inspired by Monique Jankowski’s efforts with her organization “Doe Mee, verlos de zee!”. The whole initiative is based on volunteers, so we need you! For this, the Green Office invites everyone to join in the efforts towards a healthy environment at and around the University and in the city of Vlissingen. To achieve that the Green Office works together with the Municipality of Vlissingen, which is providing materials like trash pickers, bags, and opportunity for disposal of the collected trash. To help Rijkwaterstaat to gain an insight into the plastic litter distribution on the coasts of the East and Western Scheldt, integrated monitoring events will be carried out in conjunction with the Clean-ups. This is your chance to participate in scientific research, contribute to a better understanding of Litter distribution and future efforts to keep the local beaches clean.
