The European Commission has published the latest EU Mission “Restore our Ocean and Waters” Projects Portfolio Analysis, highlighting achievements, lessons learned and recommendations for the future implementation of the Mission.
We are proud to see the work carried out by FVA within the BlueMissionMed project highlighted in this assessment!
Promoting Ocean Literacy from an early ageThe report recommends introducing ocean literacy into early education, helping children understand how their everyday actions can have both positive and negative impacts on the ocean, regardless of whether they live near the coast.
In this context, the BlueMissionMed children’s book “Our Blue Treasure“, developed by FVA with the scientific validation of the project’s partners, is highlighted as an excellent example of making ocean education engaging and accessible from an early age.
Society4Med: recognising citizen engagementThe report also highlights innovative governance approaches such as Society4Med. Developed by FVA within BlueMissionMed, the Society4Med Award recognises and promotes citizen-led initiatives contributing to the protection of the Mediterranean.
These acknowledgements reflect the value of FVA’s work within BlueMissionMed and our commitment to advancing ocean literacy, promoting innovative governance and mobilising society towards a healthier and more sustainable Mediterranean Sea!
