D3.2. Second Regional Hub report of yearly activity

This document is a deliverable of the SHORE Project, funded under the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under the grant agreement No 101112815. 

This deliverable reports the activities undertaken by the Country Hubs in the second year of the project as part of Work Package 3 Blue Skills: Education, Learning and Mobilisation Activities (Learn, Act, Mobilize) overview.

WP3 aims to facilitate the implementation of project schools, increase awareness within local communities about ocean-related issues, and empower students from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds to serve as catalysts for positive change. To accomplish this goal, the country hubs (YTU, GSNE, Mare Nostrum, UNIPD, KUW, BME, WSB) offer mentoring services to the selected schools, guiding them on the integration of educational resources into their educational systems and ensuring the high - quality implementation of their blue projects. Additionally, the hubs disseminate ocean literacy practices, advocate for Ocean Schooling initiatives, organize community engagement activities, and provide information about the European Network of Blue Schools and support the application, if this has not already been done through SHORE’s funding.

The document is being prepared by Mare Nostrum NGO (leader WP3 activities and tasks), with inputs from partners and Country Hubs involved in WP3.
