A common manifesto
A joint Manifesto of the various european collectives gathered on March 9 and 10, 2024 in Marseille, was made public on this occasion, the participating organizations calling for “political actions which tend to eliminate cruise activity, to promote less polluting economic alternatives in the affected territories, to better environmental regulation of the maritime sector as well as general awareness of the population.”
