Sigríður Ólafsdóttir, Program Director of the Masters in Marine and Coastal Management, was recently interviewed on the program "Vítt og breitt" on the National Public Radio Channel 1. The conversation with Pétur Halldórsson,the program producer, was on the subject of marine and coastal management and the current cooperative venture between the University Centre, Veraldarvina, Björgunar ehf and Hotel Núpur that works to cleanup coastlines in the northern side of the Westfjords. This cleanup project also includes research that takes note of the condition of the region, observes and tracks the amount of trash on the beaches and where it came from.
