Comments and Feedback
The clean-up was intended to retrieve a large fishing nets spotted by one of the divers in recent days, but it could not be found. The current probably took it away.
This clean up was carried out by a group of local divers from the communities of the Gulf of Tribugá, as part of the project “Managing ghost fishing in the Colombian Pacific with a community-based strategy” https://iki-small-grants.de/project/managing-ghost-fishing-in-the-colombian-pacific-with-a-community-based-strategy/
