Safilbahr

The Safilbahr project aims to raise the awareness among sea users in regard to plastic pollution by offering them an alternative to single use bags. Reusable bags will be produced with used fishing nets thanks to net repairing techniques. Net repairing training will be provided in order to ensure the quality of the bags produced. A campaign to raise the awareness of sailors, boat owners and fisheries will be set up to organise the collection of used fish nets and distribute the reusable bags. Tourists will also be targeted by means of a communication campaign. The bags will be sold in various partner retail outlets.
