The Plastics Policy Simulator (PPS) is the first technologyfinancial model for policy makers to estimate how firms and households will react to various plastic policy instruments and what the costs, revenues, and other impacts of these policies will be before laws are passed or public money is spent. It supports governments, industry, and civil society in search of mutually agreeable policy reforms to enhance plastic circularity and reduce plastic pollution.

A far cry from the African Union vision that “African cities will be recycling at least 50 per cent of the waste they generate by 2023”.

In order to tackle coastal erosion adjacent to seaports in West Africa, we propose to restore the sand balance through the implementation of a sand bypassing scheme. This solution, based on proven technology, will have direct benefits for the ports (less sedimentation) and coastal communities (less erosion). The solution is scalable to multiple West African seaports, experiencing erosion problems.

This innovation enables concrete measures to clean waterways of plastic, oil and plants. Thanks to our new technology, collection can also be carried out effectively on difficult plants. The technology is based on the flow of water and does not cause mechanical stress. As an example, the city of Kokkola, where 7 different technologies have been tested and only the Clewat solution achieved impressive results in removing Eurasian Watermilfoil.

The Implant Structure consists of robust and durable structural members which are firmly embedded into the ground by the Press-in Method. The structural members are selected from a wide variety of piling materials in accordance with design requirement, thus, the Implant Structure can cover a wide range of foundation designs required in today’s construction industry.

WARPS is a coastal environmental assessment system that combines several technologies and expertise for achieving a comprehensive knowledge of the coastal environment of the Western African Ports and infrastructures.

Our approach aims to establish a resilient and sustainable society by empowering humanware, hardware, and software. Many developing countries, where policy, regulatory, and institutional frameworks are not sufficiently developed to manage coastal areas and conserve environmental assets, have the potential for leapfrogging development using today’s technology.

SLAMDAM's unique design and material enable an exceptionally flexible solution for the emergency dam and water retention market. The product is made out of EPDM, a synthetic rubber having unique properties related to heat, ozone and weather resistance. These properties allow for the product to be used in many different conditions as an effective flood defense system. The flood barrier can be customized to meet local specific requirements.

In this context, the objective of SharIn@SEA is to share interdisciplinary good practices towards an international community of specialists by providing case studies based on real situations, and analyzed through a common foundation of interdisciplinary knowledge.
