Global discourse on marine debris requires collective actions translated at multi levels to advance local action. This paper aims to discuss the globally-led discourses on marine debris and its translation into the policy agendas and collaboration at regional, national and local levels. The key argument of this paper is built upon the perspectives from Transnational Governance, Policy Transfer Theory, Multi-Level Governance theory and Collective Action theory. This paper adopted qualitative systematic literature review (SLR) and policy analysis approach using the ROSES (Reporting Standards for Systematic Evidence Syntheses). The existing literature, legal documents, policy, and media content -that generate the empirically driven knowledge- were reviewed and analyzed to understand how global agendas can be effectively extended to regional cooperation that supports marine debris policies in developing countries. The findings show that Indonesia's legal and policy framework, primarily centered on Presidential Regulation No. 83 of 2018, plays an important role in supporting global and regional actions on marine debris through coordination at the national and local levels. There has been good progress, as seen in a 41.68 % reduction of marine plastic waste from 2018 to 2024. However it still far from the 70 % reduction target by 2025 as several challenges remain, such as poor coordination between government levels, weak law enforcement, and the continuous growth of plastic production and use. Thus, this paper concludes that effective marine debris management in Indonesia requires bridging top-down and bottom-up approaches by integrating global frameworks with local realities, ensuring that policies move beyond conservation to include socio-economic and livelihood dimensions, foster collaboration across governance levels, and empower local communities as active partners in long-term, inclusive, and contextually relevant solutions.
